|'''{{Pattern|Rasus|interdictor}}'''|| [[File:HWG SuperDestroyer.png|250px]] || The [[Covenant]] used two-kilometer-long battleships during the [[Human-Covenant War]], particularly during the [[Fall of Reach]].<ref>''Halo: First Strike'', p. 32</ref> A significant number was later amassed at the space station ''[[Unyielding Hierophant]]'', though they were destroyed in [[Operation: FIRST STRIKE]].<ref>''Halo Encyclopedia'', p. 276 (2011)</ref> | |||

| '''{{Pattern|Kewu|battleship|battleship}}'''|| [[File:Invasion - Covenant sniper warship.png|250px]] || The Kewu-pattern was comissioned, unusually, by the [[Ministry of Concert]] during the [[Ninth Age of Reclamation]]. This was viewed as highly unusual, and the design broke many conventions of naval architecture and pattern approval processes, though was ultimately blessed by the [[Hierarchs]] in an extremely unorthodox process.<ref>''Halo Encyclopedia'', p. 267 (2022)</ref> One of these vessels was present at the [[Fall of Reach]], during the battle it destroyed many UNSC ships, including the [[UNSC Musashi|Musashi]], [[UNSC Minotaur|the Minotaur]] and the [[UNSC Herodotus|Herodotus]], but the vessel was ultimately destroyed by the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn]].<ref>''Halo: The Fall of Reach, chapter 36''</ref> | |||
