Warship (Earth-5875)

Warships are ships dedicated solely for combat, in turn making them filled with thick armor plating, faster velocity than other other ships such as freighters, as well as the possession of powerful weapons of destruction. Human warships are solely operated by the UNSC Navy, and both the UNSC, the Swords of Sanghelios, and the Covenant possesses their own warship fleets. In comparison to the Covenant, the UNSC warships are smaller sized and less advanced, though they were match for their bigger counterparts through the use of excellent coordination and tactics. Covenant warships had a bigger crew, both for operations within the ship and ground, as well as  better protection through their energy shield systems. Warships considered bigger than the others are classified as capital ships.
