===Armament===
The ''Charon''-class frigate's primary armament is a [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon|Mark II, Light Coil – 83B6R3 Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]].{{Ref/Reuse|Bulletin 10.10.12}} It also boasts fifty [[Archer missile#M58 Archer|M58 Archer missile]] pods,{{Ref/Reuse|Bulletin 10.10.12}}, and four dual-mount [[M870 Rampart point defense gun]]s are installed on the port and starboard hangar bays, one on the dorsal surface and one below.{{Ref/Reuse|Bulletin 10.10.12}}{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}} Additionally, the ''Charon'' sports three [[M4093 Hyperion nuclear delivery system]] silos{{Ref/Reuse|Bulletin 10.10.12}}, which are capable of destroying an unshielded {{Pattern|Zanar|light cruiser}}.{{Ref/Dawn|H4|Dawn}}{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}}{{Ref/Note|The weapon statistics given for ''Forward Unto Dawn'', and thus the ''Charon'' class as a whole, originate with the non-canon redesigned model featured in ''Halo 4'', and thus suit that ship's particular design. Nonetheless, they are carried over into the more recent ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition)]]'' despite the book featuring an image of the ''Halo 3'' iteration - leading to an obvious inconsistency. This inconsistency lies in both the visual depiction versus the stated statistics, as well as the ''Charon'' seeming extremely overarmed in some areas when compared to other ships of a similar size scale. Given the figures' consistent usage, they are used on this page - though should be considered dubiously canon.}}
