In Response To: Re: Just checked out the Essential Visual Guide (Bry)


: Except Longswords are the size of jumbo jets. We already know a Frigate is
: technically too small to fit a number of Pelicans in, let along a Squadron
: (at least 12) Longswords.
: If you were going to fit anything like 70 of them on a single ship (consider
: means of launching and recovering them, weapons and fuel storage,
: maintenance areas) you'd probably be looking at something the size of a
: Covenant Assault Carrier.
: So in all likely hood UNSC fleets should have considerably smaller air
: wings than what we see today.
: Unless we cheat a lot.

As per the visual guide, there were different types of Longsword fighters for different roles, each with a different size. The complements would only get larger with time methinks.

Also note that the Charon-class Light Frigate (Halo 3 model) is specifically designed with larger air contingents in-mind.
