Ket-pattern battlecruiser: Difference between revisions

The ''CCS'' classification is the most well known type of Covenant warship, one of the few which the UNSC has been able to gain decent intelligence from, via the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'' in particular. The battlecruiser is a long, vaguely organic-shaped spacecraft (often referred to having many bulbous sections), capable of launching dozens of [[Seraph-class starfighter|fighters]] and [[DX-class Dropship|dropship]]s. Typically armed with a vast arsenal of energy [[weapons]], it is smaller than the rarer and more powerful [[Assault Carriers]], but larger than the more common [[Covenant Frigate|Frigates]] and [[Covenant Destroyer|Destroyers]], equipped with the standard [[energy shield]] generators, [[pulse laser]] turrets, and [[plasma turret|plasma torpedo launchers]], and used as a main heavy [[warship]] by both [[Covenant Loyalists]] and [[Covenant Separatists]]. It appears to be capable of both space warfare and supporting ground operations, capable of deploying upwards of a thousand troops of various races, as well as support vehicles and aircraft through its gravity lift.
