The Nandao fighter is a space fighter classification employed by the United Nations Space Command.[1]
Specifications
The Nandaos are described as having a "dart shape"[2], and are considered powerful enough that an understaffed Covenant frigate would avoid having to face a squadron of them.[3] The craft are capable of flying at Mach 12.[3]
The Mariner helmet is optimised for the flight systems of the Nandao, alongside those of the Baselard and Sabre.[4]

The Nandao was in service by 2526 with ten squadrons serving as a part of Task Force Pantea.[1] One squadron of Nandaos that was in service around this time was Echo One.[3]
A squadron of Nandaos was also in service as part of the complement of UNSC Spirit of Fire, and was in use by the time of the ship's participation in a conflict against the Banished on Installation 00, in 2559. The Nandaos were employed as escorts for wings of Shortsword bombers. By this time, the Nandao was considered outdated.[5]
