| The '''Stealth Cruiser''' was a starship classification in the [[UNSC]] fleet. Stealth Cruisers are the largest ''[[UNSC Prowler|Prowler]]''-class vessels built, the length of a [[UNSC Destroyer]]. There has been only one known ship of the class in active service, the {{UNSCShip|Point of No Return}}, due primarily to the sheer expense of manufacturing and maintaining the [[Stealth Ablative Coating|stealth ablative coating]] that rendered it invisible from [[radar]], other sensors, and limited visual camouflage.<ref name="GoO">''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''</ref>

| However, while the ''Point of No Return'' was in service, [[Kurt-051]] along with two of his fellow [[Spartan-II]]'s saw the construction cradle that was being used to construct a second stealth cruiser at [[Station Delphi]].<ref>''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]'', page 52</ref>

| ==Summary==
| |
| The UNSC ''Point of No Return'' was constructed in parts and then assembled in deep space. It was completely radar-invisible and when the baffled engines ran below 30%, the craft was dark as interstellar space. This ship was the wartime field command and control platform for the [[UNSC]] [[Office of Naval Intelligence|Naval Intelligence]] units, specifically [[Section_3#Section_III|ONI Section-3]]. Very few people have ever seen the ship and even less have actually been aboard this vessel.<ref name="GoO"/>

| ==Interior==
| |
| The inside of the ship was just as mysterious, with stainless-steel walls brushed to a white reflective shield, as was most of the ship's insides. The floors oddly enough weren't the same white color as the walls, being described as metal grates. It also contained a conference room that acted as a [[Faraday Cage|Faraday cage]], completely sealed off from the rest of the ship, known as "The Cage" or "[[Odin's Eye]]<ref>''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]'', pages 42-49</ref>; where meetings of an extremely classified nature could be conducted in absolute secrecy.
