==Overview== | |||
===Design details=== | |||
''Star Charters'' are small colony ships, often employed to support colonial settlement and [[terraforming]] alongside a larger ship such as a {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}}. They are often deployed attached underslung to ''Phoenix''-class ships or deployed attached to {{Class|Brumal|mast}}s. Upon reaching their destination, they are landed on the planetary surface for use as subsidence hubs - offering protection from the elements and shelter for the settlers.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | |||

==Operational history== | |||
Four such vessels were used to colonize [[Meridian]] in [[2431]], deployed from the mast ''[[Meridian 5]]''. These four ships landed on the continent of [[Turones]] to establish cities on the moon's surface.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} In [[2548]], a handful of the ships were sent to the other side of [[Hestia V]] to escape the [[Covenant]] during [[Battle of Meridian|their first assault]], and were recalled when the [[Liang Dortmund Corporation]] recolonized the planet after [[Human-Covenant War|the war]]. [[Meridian 5-Alpha|One]] of the ships was even used to power the mining town [[Meridian Station]], but was left in a heavily damaged state after a [[Guardian]] awakening.{{Ref/Site|Id=Waypoint|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/meridian-5-alpha|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Meridian 5-Alpha|D=30|M=06|Y=2021}} | |||
Following the Guardian event, Liang-Dortmund transferred one of its ''Star Charter''-class ships to oversee [[Darkstar Station]].{{Ref/Map|H5G|Skirmish at Darkstar}}{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-glassed-ceiling|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Glassed Ceiling|D=30|M=06|Y=2021}} | |||
