'''UNSC starships''' were [[Human starship]]s operated by the [[United Nations Space Command|United Nations Space Command (UNSC)]].


==History==
{{Wikipedia}}
===Insurrection===
{{Main|Insurrection}}
The time of the Insurrection saw a number of class additions and developments to the UNSC's fleet. In [[2493]], the {{Class|Valiant|super-heavy cruiser}} entered service. Though serious cost problems over five years cast doubt in the class' future.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-bulkhead-banter ''Halo Waypoint:'' Canon Fodder - Bulkhead Banter]</ref> At some point in the Insurrection, a new carrier, the {{Class|Orion|assault carrier}}, was built to help with ground operations.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-armory-amore ''Halo Waypoint:'' Canon Fodder - Armory Amore]</ref> One of the last known class additions during the Insurrection was the {{Class|Halcyon|light cruiser}}. In [[2510]], the class first entered service.<ref>''[[Halo: Combat Evolved: Sybex Official Strategies & Secrets]]'', p. 60</ref>


===Human-Covenant war===
A '''city''' is a type of settlement that [[Sentience|sapient]] species create.

{{Main|Human-Covenant war}}
 
====CAA and CMA Absorption====
In [[2525]], the UNSC would strip away the CMA's naval resources and give them to [[UNSC Naval Command|NAVCOM]].<ref>''[[Halo Wars]]'', collectible, [[Halo Wars Timeline Events]]</ref> As well, the UNSC would begin to take over the [[Colonial Administration Authority]] in the midst of the [[Human-Covenant war]]. With these additions, the UNSC received several different types of ships. This included the CAA's {{Class|Springhill|mining ship}}<ref>''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]'', Locations, p. 208</ref><ref>''[[Halo 4]]'', multiplayer map, [[Adrift]]</ref> and the {{Class|Diligence|destroyer|}} from the CMA.<ref name="canonfodder">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-clarity-grace ''Halo Waypoint'': Canon Fodder - Clarity & Grace]</ref> Both of which would be brought back to service or continued service such as with the {{UNSCShip|Kronstadt}} and the {{CAAShip|Heavy Burden}}.
 
====Early war====
{{Main|Massacre of the Outer Colonies}}
Impressive fleet actions characterized the early war. 40 ships of [[Battle Group X-Ray]] fought a single Covenant vessel over [[Harvest]],<ref>''Halo: Evolutions'', "The Impossible Life and the Possible Death of Preston J. Cole", p. 463-467</ref> over 100 ships saw action in the [[Battle of Alpha Aurigae]]<ref name="hwgenesis">''[[Halo Wars: Genesis]]''</ref><ref>''[[Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe]]'', "[[The Impossible Life and the Possible Death of Preston J. Cole]]", p. 470</ref> and another 70 [[Battle of XI Boötis A|clashed]] with the Covenant at the [[XI Boötis A system]].<ref name="hwgenesis"/>
 
====Final year of the war====
[[File:HM SigmaOctanus.jpg|thumb|right|The {{UNSCShip|Iroquois}} and a frigate staring down the [[Second Fleet of Solemn Accord]] over [[Sigma Octanus IV]].]]
By the final year of the war, a majority of the UNSC's ground forces had been consolidated at Reach and at Earth. For many colonies, it was only the ships of the navy that were reminders of the UNSC and gave aid to those cut-off. Though in many instances, the Navy couldn't afford the loss of ships and personnel, often leaving these colonies to their own devices including destruction by the Covenant. No appreciable differences could be seen in expeditionary and defensive fleets as the UNSC lost the ability to conduct offensive naval operations. Navy AIs by this point were still assigning ships to squadrons, though at that point they were administrative groupings that had lost meaning over the course of the war. As well, numerous fleets only existed on paper, having been destroyed in lost sectors years prior.<ref name="corerulebook">''[[Halo: Fleet Battles]]'', Core Rulebook - p. 9</ref>
 
{{Main|Battle of Sigma Octanus IV|Siege of the Inner Colonies}}
With 152 ships present at the of Battle of Reach,<ref>''Halo: The Fall of Reach'', Chapter 33</ref> a large number of these ships were destroyed. This included many capital ships such as the {{UNSCShip|Trafalgar}}, the flagship of the [[Epsilon Eridani Fleet]] and pride of the Navy.<ref>''Halo: First Strike'', p. 168</ref>
 
Starting [[2552#September|September 5, 2552]] all remaining UNSC starships and their fleets were consolidated under a single command grouping under the [[UNSC Home Fleet]].<ref>''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]'', [[:File:LC 002 Doc 3.jpg|Naval Records Archives]]</ref> Numerous ships arrived at Earth on October 20, 2552.<ref>''[[Halo 2]]'', campaign level, [[The Armory]]</ref> The ships above Earth would then go onto engage Covenant forces when they arrived the same day.<ref name="h2cairo">''Halo 2'', campaign level, [[Cairo Station (level)|Cairo Station]]</ref> By the end of the war, the plethora of UNSC starships had been reduced to only a few hundred.<ref name="mythospg132"/>
 
===Post-war===
[[File:H4 Infinity escort.jpg|left|thumb|200px|The UNSC ''Infinity''-class supercarrier, the largest UNSC vessel, and the ''Autumn''-class heavy cruiser.]]
Following the Human-Covenant war, the surviving UNSC starships were brought back to Sol to be repaired, refitted and counted.<ref name="mythospg132">''[[Halo Mythos: A Guide to the Story of Halo]]'', p. 132</ref>
 
A variety of starship classes and several ship improvements that were created during the war finally became commonplace. The {{Class|Autumn|heavy cruiser}}, the {{Class|Strident|heavy frigate}} and the {{Class|Infinity|supercarrier}} were all added to the fleet. All three have shielding,<ref>''[[Spartan Ops]]'', [[Departure|Episode 1: Departure]]</ref><ref name="envoyage">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/en-voyage ''Halo Waypoint:'' Canon Fodder - En Voyage]</ref> an unprecedented addition to UNSC ships.
 
As part of ongoing offenses, UNSC ''Strident''-class frigates and {{Class|Anlace|frigate}}s were being deployed to the [[Outer Colonies]] to route out [[Covenant remnants|Covenant remnant]] occupiers.<ref name="warfleetpg3839">''Halo: Warfleet – An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo'', p. 38 & 39</ref>
 
====Conflict with the Created====
{{Main|Created conflict}}
During the [[Created]]'s Reclamation, many UNSC starships were disabled by [[Guardian Custode]]s.<ref name="guardians">''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', campaign level, [[Guardians (level)|Guardians]]</ref> Some ships, were ripped out of [[Slipstream Space]] with the activation of the Guardians, like the {{UNSCShip|Nereid}}.<ref>''[[Halo: Tales from Slipspace]]'', [[Undefeated]]</ref> Shipboard AIs from numerous starships also defected to the Created.<ref name="guardians"/>
 
==Organization==
===Management===
In the UNSC, ships can also be operated by different departments and branches. Warships like the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} were often operated by the [[UNSC Navy]].<ref name="warfleetpg3637">''[[Halo: Warfleet – An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo]]'', p. 36 & 37</ref> UNSC Navy ships were deployed by [[UNSC Fleet Command]].<ref name="encycpg64">''[[Halo Encyclopedia]]'', p. 64 (2011)</ref> In the case of the {{UNSCShip|Swift Justice}}, it was operated by the [[Incident Response and Investigation]] division of the UNSC.<ref>''[[Halo: Retribution]]'', Chapter 2</ref> The [[UNSC Department of Commercial Shipping]] also operated a number of [[Freighter]]s.
 
[[File:HFB-Parisshield.png|thumb|right|150px|''Paris''-class frigates in "Shield" formation.]]
===Tactical Groupings===
{{Main|UNSC Navy tactical formations}}
UNSC ships were organized into [[fleet]]s; specifically numbered expeditionary fleets and named defensive fleets. Further down, ships were arranged into [[battle group]]s.<ref name="corerulebook"/> As well, [[squadron]]s were a type of tactical grouping for support ships early in the Covenant War,<ref>''Halo: Silent Storm''</ref> but by the end of the war were relegated to a type of administrative grouping.<ref name="corerulebook"/>
 
Often, naval groupings had a [[flagship]] from which commanding officers lead their groupings from.
 
===Identification===
There were a few known ways of identifying UNSC ships. There was the [[Hull classification symbol]], which gives each ship a letter classification and a number.<ref>''Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual'', PART 1: INTRODUCTIONS, UNSC ''Infinity'' Layout (p. 14 & 15)</ref><ref>''Halo: Warfleet - An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo'', p. 42 & 43</ref> There was also the [[Ship emblem|ship emblem]], which was a unique image that crew wore on their uniforms.<ref name="cepoa"/><ref name="h2cairo"/>
 
Some warships also used the [[UNSC REG system]], which was also a special serial number.<ref>''Halo 4'', campaign level, [[Dawn (level)|Dawn]]</ref> There was also the UNc system.<ref name="h2acairo">''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'', campaign level [[Cairo Station (level)|Cairo Station]]</ref>
 
The UNSC Department of Commercial Shipping operated its own identification codes for freighters that were primarily used in [[COM]] transmissions.<ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', Chapter 1</ref>
 
==Personnel==
It is expected of all navy ship personnel to participate in working parties. The working parties help with routine maintenance and replenishment.<ref name="osfmwelcomeaboard"/>
===Leadership===
The leader of a UNSC starship, like other human starships, is referred to as a Captain regardless of actual rank.<ref name="warfleetpg9092">''[[Halo: Warfleet – An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo]]'', p. 90-92</ref> The actual military rank of the leader is dependent on the size of the ship. Those of the rank [[Lieutenant]] often are in charge of small support vessels, [[Commander]]s are in charge of small warships, and [[Captain]]s are in charge of line warships.<ref>''[[Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual]]'', PART 8: UNSC ORGANISATION, NAVCOM Ranks (p. 140-141)</ref>
 
UNSC Starships were often given a [[Ship Director]], an AI who could manage much of the ship's tasks with the Captain's authority. Generally, these AI were "[[Smart artificial intelligence|Smart]]".<ref name="warfleetpg9092"/>
 
===Traditions and culture===
Navy personnel UNSC ships often follow old naval tradition. Boarding a UNSC warship is considered a ceremony, not a formality. When boarding a ship, the boarder requests permission from the officer on deck. The officer on deck will reply with a curt "Very well".<ref name="osfmwelcomeaboard">''Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual'', PART 1: INTRODUCTIONS, Welcome Aboard the UNSC ''Infinity''! (p. 10)</ref>
 
"Dead fleets" or "paper fleets" are maintained as tradition and to honor those who died while serving. Inadvertently, some starships will be attached to these fleets by bureaucratic error. Many crewmen regarded this as a bad omen.<ref name="corerulebook"/>
 
Children were sometimes born on board UNSC ships as well, with children being born on the {{UNSCShip|Savannah}} and the {{UNSCShip|Grafton}}.<ref>''[[Halo: Reach]]'', campaign level, [[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Reach level)|The Pillar of Autumn]], Marine dialogue</ref>
 
==Design==
===Construction and decommissioning===
[[File:HW Infinity refit.png|200px|thumb|right|The ''Infinity'' being repaired over [[Earth]] while an ''Autumn''-class is completing a float out.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/chasing-shadows ''Halo Waypoint'': Community Update - Chasing Shadows]</ref>]]
A number of corporations helped construct UNSC ships including [[Sinoviet Heavy Machinery]], [[Aerofabrique SA]],<ref name="warfleetpg3839"/> [[TanSec AB]],<ref>''Halo: Warfleet - An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo'', p. 19</ref> and [[Reyes-McLees Shipyards]].<ref>''Halo: The Fall of Reach'', Chapter 25</ref> [[Reach]],<ref name="warfleetpg3637"/> [[Tribute]], and [[Mars]] had ship building yards.<ref name="CF">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-buzz-generating ''Halo Waypoint'': Canon Fodder - Buzz Generating]</ref><ref name="warfleetpg3839"/> Reach also had its own [[Aszod ship breaking yards|ship breaking yards]] that decommissioned ships were sent to.<ref name="hrpoa"/>
 
===Facilities===
Design guidelines for ships emphasize that the command crew should have visibility of the surrounding exterior area of the ship. This is usually achieved through windows on the [[Bridge|bridge]].<ref name="hwf3233">''Halo: Warfleet – An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo'', p. 32-33</ref>
 
UNSC ships have an internal deck naming structure. On most ships, the Hangar deck is considered Zero Deck. Decks below that are "belowdeck" and are numbered in descending order starting at First Deck. Everything above the hangar deck is a "level", starting at Level One and going in an ascending order.<ref>''Halo: Silent Storm'', Chapter 4</ref>
 
Facilities to create simulated [[War Games]] training sessions could be found on several ships. Though they were mostly on post-war vessels and most prominently on the UNSC ''Infinity''.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-needle-me-this ''Halo Waypoint'': Canon Fodder - Needle Me This]</ref>
 
From the ''Phoenix''-class carrier {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}}<ref>''Halo Wars'', campaign level, [[Dome of Light]]</ref><ref>''Halo Wars 2'', campaign level [[A New Enemy]]</ref> to the {{Class|Marathon|heavy cruiser}} {{UNSCShip|Say My Name}},<ref>''Halo 3: ODST'', campaign level, [[Prepare To Drop]]</ref> numerous ships featured [[Holotank|holotables]] for battlefield situational displays.
 
[[Cryo chamber|Cryo chambers]] were an important feature that allowed the crews to travel large distances without aging as much. Cryo facilities were often large and individual chambers displayed crew member names.<ref>''Halo Wars'', campaign level, [[Escape]]</ref>
 
UNSC starships also featured [[mess hall]]s,<ref name="cepoa">''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', campaign level, [[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]</ref><ref>''[[Halo Legends]]'', [[Babysitter]]</ref> [[hangar bay]]s,<ref name="cepoa"/><ref>''Halo 5: Guardians'', campaign level, [[Blue Team (level)|Blue Team]]</ref> and [[Armory|armories]].<ref>''Halo: Combat Evolved'', campaign level, [[The Maw]]</ref><ref>''[[Halo: Evolutions]]'', "[[Midnight in the Heart of Midlothian]]", p. 86</ref>
 
Crew quarters on UNSC navy ships vary by ship type. {{Class|Halberd|destroyer}}s crew quarters were cramped<ref>''[[Halo Mythos]]'', p. 82-83</ref> with members being allocated a single sleeping pod that would sometimes need to be shared when the ship has additional crew.<ref name="hwf3233"/>
 
===Engines===
{{Main|Fusion drive|Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine}}
UNSC ships were equipped with fusion drive engines to help them move and maneuver in real-space. Shaw-Fujikawa drives help ships reach supraluminal speeds.
 
===Armament===
A number of UNSC vessels, particularly those under the control of the UNSC Navy are equipped with weaponry.
====MACs====
{{Main|Magnetic Accelerator Cannon}}
[[File:HW - MII Light coil 56A2D4 MAC2.png|thumb|right|200px|The MAC of a ''Stalwart''-class frigate.]]
MACs are massive coil guns that are used to accelerate multi-ton projectiles at extremely high velocities. These projectiles were a super-dense ferric (iron) tungsten shell.<ref name="htforchapter12">''Halo: The Fall of Reach'', Chapter 12</ref>
 
As an example, frigate based MACs are capable of firing their slugs at roughly 30,000 meters per second.<ref name="htforchapter12"/> UNSC ''Infinity'' has [[Mark 2551 Onager|miniature MAC guns]] along its hull, to compliment its built in, larger MAC guns.<ref>''[[Halo 4]]'', campaign level, [[Infinity (Halo 4 level)|Infinity]]</ref>
 
====Missile batteries====
UNSC ships generally carry an array of missile batteries. Most UNSC ships carry [[Archer Missile]]s in one of many pods. These include the [[M58 Archer Missile Delivery System]] and the [[M42 Archer Missile Delivery System]]. These were complemented with [[Fusion rocket]]s.
 
====Point defense batteries====
{{Main|Point-defense gun}}
[[File:Reach 3003793 Full.jpg|200px|right|thumb|The {{UNSCShip|Savannah}} firing its M910 Rampart guns.]]
Point defense batteries were common on UNSC warships. Some of these batteries include the [[M910 Rampart point defense network|M910 Rampart]], the [[M870 Rampart point defense gun|M870 Rampart]], the [[M710 Bulwark point defense gun|M710 Bulwark]], and the [[Mark 57 Arena point defense gun|Mark 57 Arena]].
 
====Nuclear weapons====
{{Main|Nuclear weapon}}
UNSC warships usually contain nuclear weapons of some sort. {{Class|Shiva|nuclear missile}} and [[M4093 Hyperion nuclear delivery system]] were known shipboard nuclear weapons used by the UNSC.
 
===Docking capabilities===
UNSC ships had docking capabilities, though the exact details are dependent on what the ship is docking with. {{Class|Stalwart|light frigate}}s were capable of docking with {{Class|Moncton|orbital weapon platform}}s.<ref name="h2cairo"/> [[Class-L flash-dock]]s routinely held frigates and corvettes, though the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} was able to use one.<ref name="hrpoa">''[[Halo: Reach]]'', campaign level, [[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Reach level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]</ref>
 
==Complement==
===Small craft===
{{Main|Space fighter|Dropship}}
[[File:D77H-TCI Pelican Gunship.jpg|thumb|right|150px|D77H-TCI, a model of the ever present Pelican Dropship.]]
Attached to various UNSC vessels are a number of small craft. Some were operated by other branches of the UNSC. The [[F-41 Exoatmospheric Multirole Strike Fighter]], for example, was most often operated by the [[UNSC Air Force]].<ref>''Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide'', Vehicles, p. 114</ref> The ubiquitous [[Pelican]] was operated by several branches including the [[UNSC Marine Corps]].<ref name="h2cairo"/>
 
Some starships, like the UNSC ''Pillar of Autumn'', had lifeboats for the crew. The most known ones were the [[Bumblebee]] series.<ref>''Halo: Combat Evolved'', campaign level, [[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]</ref>


==Types==
==Types==
===Colony ship===
===Human===
{{Main|Colony ship}}
Human cities often have transit systems featuring [[Maglev train]]s.<ref>''[[Halo 2]]'', multiplayer map, [[Terminal (level)|Terminal]]</ref><ref name="exodus">''[[Halo: Reach]]'', campaign level, [[Exodus]]</ref><ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', p. 45</ref> Quite a few cities also prominently hosted [[Space elevator]]s.<ref>''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', campaign level, [[Prepare To Drop]]</ref><ref>''[[Halo 4]]'', campaign level, [[Skyline (level)|Skyline]]</ref><ref name="exodus"/>
The UNSC also operated a colony ship class, the {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}}.


===Support starships===
Human cities are sometimes [[Wikipedia:arcology|arcologies]]. Several examples of this include the [[Castra Arcology]]<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=Halo3ODSTsquad ''Bungie.net'': Meet the Squad (6/2/2009)]</ref> and the [[Haven arcology]].<ref>''[[Halo: Reach]] [[Halo: Reach Limited Edition|Limited Edition]]'', [[Intersystem News]]: HAVEN TERROR BOMBING KILLS TWO MILLION</ref><ref>''[[Halo: Reach]]'', [[Dr. Halsey's personal journal]]</ref>
{{Main|Support starship}}
<gallery>
Several types of support ships that were used include the stealthy [[UNSC prowler|Prowler]] and its subtypes. Other stealth ship classes existed including the {{Class|Chiroptera|stealth vessel}}. There was also the incredibly small [[sloop]]. Another type of ship that was used by the UNSC was the {{Class|Calypso|exfiltration craft}}. Following the UNSC's take over of the CAA, the {{Class|Springhill|mining ship}} helped build materiel for UNSC forces.

[[File:UNSC Capital Vessels (Spartan Games).jpg|thumb|right|200px|A few UNSC warships and their sizes compared to one another.]]
The UNSC employs a number of warships including [[UNSC frigate|frigates]], [[UNSC destroyer|destroyers]] and [[UNSC cruiser|cruisers]]. The {{Class|Vindication|light battleship|}} was unique as it was a [[Battleship]], an uncommon warship in UNSC ship design and classification.


[[UNSC carrier]]s were among the largest, most heavily armed ships the UNSC possesed. Two carrier classes were so large that frigates could dock with them; the {{Class|Punic|supercarrier}} and the {{Class|Infinity|supercarrier}}.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-infinity-beyond ''Halo Waypoint'': Canon Fodder - Infinity & Beyond]</ref>
