==Overview==
===Design details===
''Majestic'' is a destroyer of unknown classification. It is equipped with a rapid-fire {{Convert|160|cm|in}} [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon]],{{Ref/Reuse|Radio}}{{Ref/NoteReuse|class}} making it unlikely to be a {{Class|Halberd|light destroyer}} - which is equipped with a twin-linked 1170mm/647mm MAC battery.{{Ref/Book|HWF|Page=32-33}}
 
During a [[Halo: Reach radio conversations#Reflection|radio communique]] called by [[Alpha 20]] during the [[Fall of Reach]], ''Majestic'' was described as having a ''"five-zero one-hundred-sixty charlie mike"'' - with the latter section presumably referring to the measurement of the MAC's breach.{{Ref/Reuse|Radio}}{{Ref/NoteReuse|class}} The ''five-zero'' may be a measurement of [[Wikipedia:Caliber (artillery)|caliber]] - if so, this would give the ''Majestic''{{'}}s MAC a caliber of 50 - or a barrel length of {{Convert|80|m|ft}}. When rendered, this would give ''Majestic'' a caliber notation akin to 50/160cm, as noted by Alpha 20.
 
==Service history==
During the [[Fall of Reach]] on [[2552#August|August 30, 2552]], ''Majestic'' was called in to perform an [[Orbital bombardment|orbital strike]] on three [[Covenant cruiser]]s over Reach with its MAC. Despite [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartan]] [[Beta-Red|Beta Red Team]] being in the splash zone, ''Majestic'' was authorized to fire on the Covenant vessels, destroying all three vessels and creating a massive crater in the ground. The impact presumably killed the Spartans.{{Ref/Reuse|Radio}}{{Ref/NoteReuse|class}}
