The ''Rasus''-pattern interdictor is approximately two kilometers long and one kilometer wide.{{Ref/Reuse|Cole}} It is larger than many Covenant warships, even surpassing the keel length of the ''Ket''-pattern battlecruiser, but itself is dwarfed by other starships such as [[Covenant carrier]]s. The super-destroyer's hull is composed of five bulbous sections - a swollen prow, two lateral lobes, a dorsal bulb and a protruding stern - presumably housing the array of ancient and puissant [[Forerunner]] [[weapon-core]]s that the ship is built around. The loss of any of these ships was considered a tragic event, with a super-destroyer impossible to replicate without finding an appropriate new trove of weapon-cores.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
