Mjern-pattern agricultural support ship

Agricultural Support Ship

Agricultural Support Ships are a type of support vessel used by the Covenant and attached to their wandering Covenant Fleets. These vessels are much smaller than a Covenant capital ship, and are not designed for combat. Rather, they are designed to provide fresh foodstuffs for Covenant soldiers. They contain large hunting preserves holding many types of animals to be killed and fed to the Elites and Prophets within the Fleet, as well as plants, but it is unclear if these plants are eaten. Humans do not know much about the diet of most Covenant creatures.

They are only crewed by Engineers and Grunts with no Elites onboard. They are commanded by a single Minor Prophet. Only one has been named, which was the Infinite Succor.
