Charon-class Light Frigate (Small Grid, 1:10 Scale)

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

History
The Charon has the most storage capacity of the three main Frigate designs, but fewer weapons and less armor than the Paris-class heavy frigate, and slower than the Stalwart, making it best suited for troop support rather than fleet support. It largely replaced the Berlin class frigate in this capacity. Not only able to easily perform in atmosphere, the Charon-class can airdrop supplies to ground forces.

Armament
Frigate MAC, Archer Missiles, Point Defense Guns

Equipment
Jump Drive, Assemblers, Supply Drop (ejectors)

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.

To use this ship: Enter the cockpit on the "Bridge" and control directly. The ship can also be remotely controlled.
