Template:Ship The Covenant Frigate[1] is a medium-tonnage warship, seeming to be the smallest and most common warship classification among the Covenant's space fleets. These starships are equipped with multiple pulse lasers, three or more, and at least one Plasma Torpedo launcher on a lateral surface. They appear at most Covenant-UNSC engagements. They are larger then a UNSC Frigate, but smaller than other UNSC ships. They have overall bulbous shape.
Furthermore, the Sangheili also equipped their starships with anti-Plasma Torpedo "counterguiding signal" systems.[2] The Jiralhanae also stole this technology during the Covenant Civil War and equipped some of their frigates, such as the Reverant, Twilight Compunction, and Tenebrous with such devices. However, they did not understand the full intracities of the system.
