The ''SDV''-class heavy corvette made its visual debut in the [[2010]] game ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', playing an integral role in the [[campaign]] level "[[Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace]]", as well as serving as the setting for the [[Firefight]] map "[[Corvette (level)|Corvette]]" and the multiplayer map "[[Zealot (level)|Zealot]]"—both taking place aboard the corvette ''[[Ardent Prayer]]''. For the game, the corvette was conceptualized and designed by artist Glenn Israel, who attempted to create a new, yet familiar, ship class. The corvette's design was partly inspired by the {{Class|CCS|battlecruiser}}, particularly ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'' which had previously served as a setting for ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. While the corvette's interior resembles that of the battlecruiser, the increased processing power of the [[Xbox 360]] allowed for significantly more detail.<ref name="abw73"/> The design of the ''SDV''-class corvette for ''[[Halo: Fleet Battles]]'' was achieved without using the ''Halo: Reach'' model for reference.
