Halo Paris Class Frigate
SummaryEasily one of the most critical vessels within the UNSC Navy during the course of the war, humanity’s frigates are light combat ships designed for speed, maneuverability, and firepower. The most recent addition to the frigate type is the Strident-class, lean and lethal machines, which pack incredible firepower. They include a Mark IV ship-mounted MAC and three Hyperion nuclear warheads—weapons even capable of defeating a variety of Covenant capital ships if their shields are down.In fact, Strident-class frigates are considered so invaluable that even the enormous and powerful UNSC Infinity carries a number of them, underslung within its sub-vessel deployment bay.
