*For propulsion, Assault Carriers rely on large [[deuterium]]-[[tritium]] fusion reactors, housed in cavernous chambers<ref>''[[Halo 2]]'', [[Cairo Station (Level)|Cairo Station]]</ref>, which power the ship's vital systems, as well as the three aft-mounted plasma drives that propel the ship, capable of operating in a vacuum or in an atmospheric environment. They also employ un-reactive gravity drives for standard maneuvering and hovering above the surface of a planet, resisting its gravity. | *For propulsion, Assault Carriers rely on large [[deuterium]]-[[tritium]] fusion reactors, housed in cavernous chambers<ref>''[[Halo 2]]'', [[Cairo Station (Level)|Cairo Station]]</ref>, which power the ship's vital systems, as well as the three aft-mounted plasma drives that propel the ship, capable of operating in a vacuum or in an atmospheric environment.

*The [[UNSC Frigate]] [[Forward Unto Dawn]] is small enough to fit into the Shadow of Intent's Hanger. Therefore, it would be plausible that the Assault Carrier could easily carry smaller Covenant ships. | *The [[UNSC Frigate]] [[Forward Unto Dawn]] is small enough to fit into the Shadow of Intent's Hanger.
