'''Major''' is a rank held by many [[Kig-Yar]] [[T'vaoan]]s in the [[Covenant military]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', [[Halo: Reach Official Strategy Guide|Official Strategy Guide]]''</ref><ref name="HE157">'''[[Halo Encyclopedia]]''', ''page 157''</ref>   

Once a [[Skirmisher Minor]] gains enough experience, it is promoted to the rank of Major. They are moderately stronger and more durable than Minors. Majors are often deployed because of their speed, with some squads being tracked at running forty-five miles per hour in open environments. They are often seen leading low-ranking [[Kig-Yar]] and [[Unggoy]]. The Majors with the highest combat-rating are selected to become [[Skirmisher Murmillo]]nes.<ref name="HE157"/>

Skirmisher Majors are distinguished by their red armor and red-patterned feathers. Majors lack the protective helmets and point-defense gauntlets used by higher-ranking Skirmishers.<ref name="HE157"/> Majors are typically armed with [[plasma pistol]]s, [[needler]]s, [[needle rifle]]s, and [[Type-52 focus rifle|focus rifles]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', ''gameplay''</ref>
