| | |
| The '''Unidentified Covenant Flagship''' (fan-named '''Covenant Supercruiser''') was a classification of extremely powerful capital [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] warships within the [[Covenant Navy]].
| |
| | |
| ==Background==
| |
| ===Physical Characteristics and Armament===
| |
| Its length of 3.5 kilometers was over three times that of the [[UNSC]] {{Class|Marathon|Cruiser}}.<ref>''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', page 297</ref>
| |
| | |
| These ships were durable enough to withstand one [[nuclear mine]] detonation, or even three [[MAC]] rounds and nearly five hundred [[Archer missile]]s. However, during the [[Battle of Reach]], it used a hit-and-run tactic to avoid fire from the [[ODP]]s' "Super" MACs.
| |
| | |
| ===Operational Use===
| |
| One of these warships led the Covenant invasion [[Fleet]] during the the Battle of Reach in [[2552#August|August 2552]], where it destroyed many UNSC ships, like the {{UNSCShip|Musashi}}, the {{UNSCShip|Minotaur}} and the {{UNSCShip|Herodotus}}, but was destroyed by the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}. The ''Autumn'' launched a remote controlled [[Longsword]] armed with a [[Shiva-class Nuclear Missile|shiva missile]] under the Supercruiser's shields, multiplying the destructive blast exponentially, by having the shields containing the blast.
| |
| | |
| ==Weapons==
| |
| The ship's weapon systems seem limited, but extremely powerful. It possesses an [[Energy Projector]] which shoots a thin needle beam at light speed, enabling it to cut through the hull armor of several UNSC ships at a time. First described as a type of sniping ship because of its combat tactics, this weapon can be described as similar to the [[Beam Rifle]]. This weapon needs to charge over time, but once charged, can unleash its wrath with deadly pinpoint accuracy.
| |
| | |
| ==Complement==
| |
| Given its gigantic size (second only to the [[Assault Carrier]] and [[Covenant Supercarrier|Supercarrier]]), it is supposed to be able to carry hundreds of [[Seraph|fighters]] and/or [[dropships]]. Moreover, it probably carries large amounts of ground vehicles and troops, possibly [[legions]].
