The '''Covenant Frigate'''<ref>''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]'', page 192</ref> is a medium-tonnage warship, seeming to be among the smallest and most common warship types in the [[Covenant Navy]]. These starships are equipped with multiple [[Pulse Laser turret|pulse lasers]] and 1-3 [[Plasma Torpedo]] launchers on a lateral surface. They have participated in most [[Covenant]]-[[UNSC]] engagements. They are larger than a [[UNSC Frigate]] or [[UNSC Destroyer]], but smaller than most UNSC Cruisers (such as the {{Class|Marathon|Cruiser|}}) and, like most other Covenant starships, they have an curving, bulbous shape.

Furthermore, the [[Sangheili]] also equipped their starships with anti-[[Plasma Torpedo]] "counter guiding signal" systems.<ref>''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''</ref> The [[Jiralhanae]] stole this technology during the [[Covenant Civil War]] and equipped some of their Frigates, such as the ''[[Reverant]]'', ''[[Twilight Compunction]]'' and ''[[Tenebrous]]'' with such devices. However, they did not understand the full intricacies, or workings, of the system, thus limiting their effectiveness.

At the [[Battle of Reach]], two Covenant Frigates made a [[Slipspace]] microjump in pursuit of the [[UNSC Prowler]] [[Circumference]] after its failure to enact the [[Cole Protocol]]. The Frigates then released dozens of [[Sangheili]] [[Rangers]] to board the Prowler to recover the NAV core.
