The ''Razor''-class prowler is armed with a missile payload for attacking both ground and air targets, which can be made up of either [[Archer missile|Archer]],<ref name="HO6"/> [[Argent V missile|Argent V]],<ref name="HSS25"/> or [[M28 Shrieker missile|M28 Shrieker missiles]].<ref name="HSS8"/> To protect its troops when disembarking, it has four defensive turrets, which are divided between a pair of nose-mounted 50mm autocannons<ref name="HSS25"/> and belly-mounted 30mm turrets.<ref name="HSS8"/> In the event that the vessel is compromised, a one-megaton [[Fury tactical nuclear weapon]] is present within the prowler's engineering compartment. Although it is programmed to automatically detonate in the event of a catastrophic event, it will only do so if it detects no shipboard motion over the course of two hours; otherwise, it must be manually triggered.<ref name="HSS14">'''Halo: Silent Storm''', ''Chapter 14''</ref>

===Crew and Complement===
===Crew and Complement===
The ''Razor''-class prowler is able to carry a full [[ODST]] [[platoon]] of 40 men in its drop bay, complete with vacuum-rated armor and thruster packs. When increased to 42, it is estimated to take at least four seconds to clear the bay. This could potentially spread the platoon across a 30-kilometer area of space when deployed in a typical drop-and-go fashion.<ref name="HSS7"/> The bay also had recessed tie-down bars that could secure a [[M12 Warthog]]. A [[hangar bay]] is located above here, which can accommodate two [[D75-TC Pelican]]s.<ref name="HO6"/>

The prowler could accommodate a crew of up to 22 personnel, with seven servicemen occupying the flight deck at the front of the prowler. This is composed of the prowler commander, pilot, copilot, sensor operator, communications officer, navigator, and weapons controller.<ref name="HO4">'''Halo: Oblivion''', ''Chapter 4''</ref> Located in the middle of the prowler was the engineering section, which was divided between two decks.<ref name="HSSC24">'''Halo: Silent Storm''', ''Chapter 24''</ref>

The ''Razor''-class prowler had a refractive coating on its hull to obscure it from enemy sensors.<ref name="HSS1"/> Although difficult to detect, human sensors have a 30% increased chance to detect the prowler when it is located roughly 100,000 kilometers away.<ref name="HSS25"/>
