Charon-class Light Frigate (Vanilla)

The Charon-class light frigate is an escort classification in the UNSC Navy. It is best suited for fleet escort duties and troop support.

History
Designed with a support role in mind, the Charon-class has fewer weapons than the others. It also has less armor than the Paris-class and is slower than the Stalwart, but a high storage capacity. This makes the Charon-class better suited to troop support than direct combat assignments, and it largely replaced the Berlin class frigate in this capacity. Able to easily perform in atmosphere, the frigate can airdrop supplies and provide fire support to ground forces.

Armament
1 Rocket Launcher - 2 Missile Turrets - 6 Gatling Turrets

Equipment
5 Large containers, Oxygen and Hydrogen systems

Tactics
When fielded in larger numbers, Charon-class frigates can screen a formation, engaging Covenant frigates and destroyers while allowing more powerful UNSC destroyers and cruisers to focus fire on the larger Covenant cruisers and carriers.

This ship is 1:10 scale. It is 100% light armor construction and is rated for 1.6g.
