Kerel-pattern assault carrier
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
The Assault Carrier is a heavy warship classification within the Covenant Fleet. The Assault Carrier easily dwarfs even the mighty UNSC Marathon-class Cruiser-Carrier, as seen in this comparison of ships.
They are larger than CCS-class Battlecruisers, with three primary bulbous sections as opposed to the single one atop a CCS-class battlecruiser.
Appearances
- There were two Assault Carriers in the Second Battle of Earth - one was the Prophet of Regret's personal starship, and the other was destroyed by SPARTAN-117
- In the Halo 3 preview, the only Covenant capital ships present in the "excavation force" at the site of the Forerunner artifact appear to be Assault Carriers.
