The '''Halcyon-class Cruiser''' (Pronounced 'hal-see-on') (known as '''Human Attack Ship class C-II'''<ref>[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]], page 4</ref> by the [[Covenant]]) was a [[United Nations Space Command]] cruiser starship classification designed by [[Dr. Robert McLees]] in [[2510]]. Their service lives were short due to a unique hull design that was costly both to construct and to maintain, lack of speed, and concerns about their tactical viability. They were subsequently replaced by the {{Class|Marathon|Cruiser}}. An example of a Halcyon-class cruiser would be the Pillar of Autumn.
