UNSC Hermes II[1] Production information Technical specifications Shielding None Usage Affiliation UNSC Navy
	[Source]

Presumably a UNSC vessel. In a promotional transmission for Halo: Combat Evolved featured on Bungie's website, the Hermes II received a message from the CAR-class Covenant Cruiser, the Contrition.

NOTE: Nothing else about this object is known. It is possible that the Hermes II is a station rather than a ship. However it is referred to as a "SCS" class ship, the same letters which precede the UNSC Pillar of Autumn. Therefore it is possible that this is a Halcyon-class cruiser cruiser. It is impossible to confirm this.

The TransmissionsEdit

Before Halo 1's release, a number of transmissions related to the game could be found on Bungie's website. The transmissions are directly linked to the Cortana Letters.
