Larger than UNSC Frigates but relatively weak compared to most Covenant ships, corvettes are usually sent in advance of larger fleets. They are streamlined, with a vaguely oblong hull shape. Their "double-hull" assembly is unique among Covenant vessels encountered so far. Corvettes are also different from most known Covenant in that the bridge is located at the front of the ship instead of in the ship's center. They also have no shields which leave them vulnerable to smaller [[UNSC]] weapons such as [[Point-defense gun]]s.  A lack of shield also puts the ship at risk of being boarded, as seen during [[Operation: UPPER CUT]].

Unlike larger Covenant vessels, Corvettes have no energy shields. This leaves them vulnerable to smaller [[UNSC]] weapons such as [[Point-defense gun]]s.  A lack of shield also puts the ship at risk of being boarded, as seen during [[Operation: UPPER CUT]].
