'''Imperial Admiral''' is a [[Covenant]] [[Sangheili]] (Elite) rank. There is speculation that it is equal in rank to the [[Supreme Commander]] rank, though proof one way or another has not been put forward. | '''Imperial Admiral''' is a [[Covenant]] [[Sangheili]] (Elite) rank.

An Imperial Admiral operates on a high-ranking [[Covenant Flagship]] in the [[Covenant Navy]] such as an [[Assault Carrier]], [[Covenant Supercarrier|Supercarrier]] or other very powerful capital ships within the [[Covenant]] armada. They are of higher rank than a [[Zealot]], as [[Xytan 'Jar Wattinree]] promoted [[Voro Nar 'Mantakree]] to the position of [[Fleet Master]]. <ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]], | An Imperial Admiral operates on a very high-ranking [[Covenant Flagship]] in the [[Covenant Navy]] such as an [[Assault Carrier]], [[Covenant Supercarrier|Supercarrier]] or other very powerful capital ships within the [[Covenant]] armada.

Little else is known about the rank itself. It is unknown how many of these Imperial Admirals there actually were and only Xytan 'Jar Wattinree is named as an Admiral - so it is likely that the rank is unique. For some reason other Fleet Masters are being kept secret by the Prophets. | ||

Such silver-and-gold Elite armor has been mentioned in ''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]'' as superior in quality to the gold armor of a Zealot. <ref>[[Xytan 'Jar Wattinree]]</ref><ref>[[Rtas 'Vadum]]</ref> When Xytan 'Jar Wattinree spoke to his [[Ship Master]]s, he did so by way of a massive holographic representation of himself, over 30 feet tall. It is not clear if this was a choice peculiar to Xytan or if all Imperial Admirals have similar holograms. | ||
