'''Description''': The RCS-class armored cruiser is a capital warship classification within the Covenant Navy.


Boasting sophisticated stealth technology, an energy projector and plasma turrets, the ORS is more powerful than most cruisers used by the Covenant. Using the 3-letter code used to classify Covenant ships, "O" ("Ordained") indicates that the cruiser has been improved with Forerunner technology, specifically, a weapons core. The "R" ("Reverence") indicates that the cruiser is capable of conducting reconnaissance missions and is capable of excavating Forerunner artifacts. The "S" ("Salvation") indicates that the cruiser is a dedicated warship with a pair of energy projectors. The ORS combines design elements from the CCS-class battlecruiser, SDV-class heavy corvette and the CSO-class supercarrier, and was originally designed to be the CCS' big brother while still paying homage to the CAS-class assault carrier, which is identical to the CSO, providing a visual link between multiple carries in terms of size.
The RCS-class armored cruiser likely operates in combat similarly to the CCS-class battlecruiser, and seems to usurp the former's role within the Covenant Remnant. While possessing less offensive power than its counterpart with only a single Energy Projector, justifiable of its namesake the RCS-class is larger and more heavily armored.
