The fusion drive however will goes on malfunction or disabled temporarily if it goes exceeding its maximum capabilities. ''UNSC In Amber Clad'' suffers depleted engine cores after piggybacking through ''[[Solemn Penance]]'' slipspace wake from New Mombasa due to Covenant slipspace speed that exceeds UNSC's slipspace speed multiple folds. An exception occurs on ''UNSC Gettysburg'' after it was refitted with Covenant [[Borers]] where it was most likely the slipspace drive adjust itself into the Fusion drive's engines, allowing the vessel to reach Earth without depleting its engine cores.
