Cruiser is a Covenant ship classification. This category groups a number of capital ships that share different sizes and roles, but are ubiquitous within the Covenant navy. Cruisers are usually the backbone of any Covenant fleets.[1]
Overview
Cruisers are the most prominent vessels used by the Covenant during an invasion. Each cruiser class has specific shapes and functions, but they often share an overall similar design. The different classes also have similar equipment and armament, such as energy shields, ventral cleansing beams, anterior plasma cannons and point laser defense. There are four primary classes: CRS, CCS, RCS and ORS. Though there are other kinds of cruisers, their differences are minimal and they easily fall within one of the main classes.[1]
Classes
There are many cruiser classes used by the Covenant, each with different roles.
- The CRS-class light cruiser is smaller than the average Covenant cruiser, but it still performs well during attack and interference operations.[1] Light cruisers are prominently used by Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction.
- The CCS-class battlecruiser is easily the most prominent warship used by the Covenant during the Human-Covenant War. It performs exceptionally during the invasion and occupation of a world.[1]
- The RCS-class armored cruiser is a class of cruiser mainly used for patrol and planetary occupation.[1]
- The ORS-class heavy cruiser is significantly larger than most Covenant cruisers and is used for planetary occupation and naval command.[1] The heavy cruiser is often used as a support for Covenant flagships.[2]
- The Reverence-class cruiser is a lesser class. It is a massive vessel used to bring large amounts of infantry for planetary deployment.[3]
