The '''''Winter''-class prowler''',{{Ref/Book|Id=VIS|H4EVG|Page=190}} also known as the '''''Winter''-class stealth corvette''', is a [[prowler]] in service with the [[UNSC Navy]], primarily designed for speed and stealth with the purpose of deep-space reconnaissance.{{Ref/Reuse|warfleet46}} ''Winter''-class prowlers commonly monitor former member species of the [[Covenant]] and [[human]] [[insurrectionist]]s, precautionary measures taken by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] to ensure humanity's safety.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} Ships of the class are typically designated with the [[hull classification symbol]] '''PRO''', though those that receive the prototypical upgrades have the '''IX''' hull code, denoting an "Unclassified Miscellaneous Unit".{{Ref/Reuse|warfleet46}} | |||

Somewhat similar in functionality and design to the {{Class|Black Cat|subprowler}}s used by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] in the early 26th century, prowlers of the ''Winter'' class are constructed with a smaller and more compact frame than other prowler classes. With an aerodynamic frame, swooped back wings, and narrow cockpit, ''Winter''-class prowlers bear resemblance to a number of [[UNSC]] [[space fighter]]s rather than a [[warship]]. However, its design is intended to improve speed and versatility during atmospheric operations.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} | Somewhat similar in functionality and design to the {{Class|Black Cat|subprowler}}s used by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] in the early 26th century, prowlers of the ''Winter'' class are constructed with a smaller and more compact frame than other prowler classes.

Should it somehow be detected, the ''Winter''-class has one last defense in the form of three pop-up turrets, one directly behind the cockpit and two on the wings. Each of these contain two anti-missile [[Pulse laser turret|pulse laser]]s and an electronic warfare countermeasures dispenser. This dispenser can release a variety of consumables from heat sinks to deception jammers to mislead enemy sensors and break target locks.{{Ref/Reuse|warfleet46}} | Should it somehow be detected, the ''Winter''-class has one last defense in the form of three pop-up turrets, one directly behind the cockpit and two on the wings.
