Description: “Spartan Games needed to generate both concept and models in some cases (ORS Heavy Cruiser), in others we could provide detailed concept and reference but no models (DSC Support Ship)...”
— Kenneth Peters, Canon Fodder

The DSC-class support ship, simply referred to as the agricultural support ship, is a type of support vessel used by the Covenant, and attached to their wandering fleets.

Design

These vessels are much smaller than a Covenant capital ship, and are not designed for combat. Rather, they are designed to provide fresh food for Covenant soldiers. They contain large hunting preserves holding many types of animals, to be killed and fed to the Sangheili and San'Shyuum within the fleet, as well as plants, but it is unclear if these plants are eaten.

Crew

They are only crewed by Huragok and Unggoy, with almost no Sangheili on board. They are commanded by a single San'Shyuum. Only one has been named, which was the Infinite Succor.
