The Covenant Supercarrier[1] was a heavy warship classification within the Covenant Navy.
Multiple Supercarriers of the Second Fleet of Homogeneous Clarity defended the massive space station of High Charity[2] and one such vessel served as the Flagship of the Combined Fleet of Righteous Purpose.[3][4] An unnamed Supercarrier was destroyed by a makeshift Slipspace bomb during the Fall of Reach, as part of Operation: UPPERCUT by Jorge-052. The bomb was planted on board a Covenant corvette set for a refueling trip to the supercarrier. Overall the Super carrier is a mind-numbingly large and well equiped ship, the ship easily dwarfed both the unsc Frigate and Covenant corvette that were featured in the only mission in the entire halo trilogy to see a covenant super carrier. The ship itself is, much like the smaller and less powerful assault carrier comprised of several bulbous and in reality rather weak suport struts. The interior of the ship has yet to be seen in any type of halo based literature and or media, but would most likely share a similar if not grander apperance than most other covenant ships.
