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.
