The Missile-Class Frigate was developed by the UNSC before the start of the Human-Covenant War. As the Human-Covenant War progressed the use of Missile Frigates lessened due to their lack of firepower against shielded Covenant vessels. However Missile-Class Frigates were still produced as they created an execellent form of anti-aircraft defense with occasions when whole squadrons of Seraph fighters were destroyed in one volley.

| - The Missile-Class Frigate was developed by the UNSC before the start of the Human-Covenant War. As the Human-Covenant War progressed the use of Missile Frigates lessened due to their lack of firepower against shielded Covenant vessels. However Missile-Class Frigates were still produced as they created an execellent form of anti-aircraft defense with occasions when whole squadrons of Seraph fighters were destroyed in one volley. The Missile-Class Frigate has a unigue design where a revolver like mechanism is placed under the uper arm of the frigate. This large cylinder holds two thirds of the frigate's missile armament. Due to the size and weight of the missiles many of the other armaments have been replaced to make room for added munitions. The frigate can only hold up to a platoon of Marines and only two Pelican dropships. The MAC cannon has been noted of being even less effective than that of regular UNSC Frigates as well due to lack of power and space. Missile Frigates would also be given the nickname Lightbulb, reason given was for that Missile Frigates were prone to exploding in brilliant flashes of light when struck by weak Covenant weapons near the munitions. The frigate is fast and agile, a product in an attempt to make more use of Missile Frigates. The Missile Frigate can be piloted by a crew of five at the bridge: Captian, Navigations, Weapons, Communications, and Operations. The Frigate has an advanced guidance system for its Archer Missiles and is capable of tracking up to four hundred targets.
