The Covenant Battleship^[2] was a heavy capital Warship classification within the Covenant Navy. This warship was two kilometers long, had five bulbous sections and bristled with a dozen Energy Projectors - enough weapons and firepower to decimate any UNSC Fleet from long range. It was larger than most Covenant warships, even surpassing the keel length of the CCS-class Battlecruiser, but itself was dwarfed by the Covenant Flagship (Flagships seem usually to be Assault Carriers or Supercarriers (Sublime Transcendence) not a separate class as is sometimes stated) and the Covenant Assault Carrier.

Multiple Battleships defended the Unyielding Hierophant.
