Weapon-ship

Weapon-ships were small autonomous combat craft used by the Forerunners, launched to carry out tasks considered to be beneath the dignity and worth of Warrior-Servants. Deployed from larger ships such as s, weapon-ships operated in automated phalanx formations and could be controlled at a ratio of up to a million ships per warrior. The most common of the Forerunners' autonomous combat drones, weapon-ships were classified as small auxiliaries deployed in the millions to serve as scouts, escorts, or shields. Disposable to fleet commanders, they were frequently deployed en masse in battles.

Various classes of weapon-ship existed, with one of the smallest classes being the Phaeton.
