Dragoons were crewed by [[Navarch|navarchs]] and a single [[Princeps|princep]], protected by significant numbers of heavily-armored [[Warrior-Servant|Warrior-Servants]] [[Scutarii|scutarii]] and [[Venatore|venatores]], and were equipped with an long-range [[Auspex array]] scanning system, [[Converging beam cannon|converging beam cannons]] and a [[Torsion driver|torsion driver]]. Two dragoons combined with a battle station formed a combat trident, able to be deployed across the galaxy as a policing force for trivial faction or pocket empire matters. Combat tridents were expanded to ten dragoons within the [[Forerunner-Flood war]].


A notable class of dragoon was the [[Sojourner-class dreadnought]], also described as a prime dragoon for its pinnacle Forerunner technologies and effectiveness. It was introduced shortly before containment efforts against the [[Flood]] began, and continued to fight in all major engagments of the Flood war.
