A Covenant cruiser is a type of heavy-tonnage starship within the Covenant Navy. Covenant cruisers, however, should not be generalized as the Covenant CCS-class battlecruiser.

[edit] Overview

The cruiser is larger than the Covenant light cruiser but is smaller than the DDS-class carrier. They are armed with five Plasma turrets and laterally-mounted pulse lasers,[2] but lack a compliment of supplementary Type-31 Seraph fighters.[citation needed] Like other Covenant ships, the Covenant cruiser is roughly oblong in shape with touches of a purple and blue color scheme.
