Unfortunately these designs will be UNSC only until more powerful energy weapons and more comprehensive shield systems are released. Ship scale is as close to 1 as I could get, and the weapon systems are intended to mimic UNSC vessels to as close a degree as possible without making them completely useless in the game meta. Without further ado...
The UNSC Halberd class Destroyer. This ship is designed for head on combat in large groups and is especially effective at soaking up damage while still remaining serviceable. The weapon systems are uniquely arranged so that all of the vessel's batteries can engage forward targets.
The UNSC Paris class Frigate. This is a warship designed to provide heavy fire support and mop up enemy ships while also providing broadside capability. Note that the M.A.C. (Magnetic Accelerator Cannon) is extremely vulnerable and will cause catastrophic damage to the vessel if destroyed.
The UNSC Stalwart class Frigate. This is basically a cheaper version of the Paris Class Frigate with slightly less firepower. It is intended as an anti-fighter support ship and is generally less expensive to repair, while also being faster than the average UNSC vessel.
The UNSC Halcyon class Light Cruiser. This class of cruiser is known for its compartmentalized hull and extremely heavy armor, which makes its superstructure nearly indestructible. The Halcyon is designed for long and drawn out fights, making it extremely effective as a front line ship or shield for larger and more powerful cruisers. The only drawback to the design, and the reason for its eventual discontinuation, is the jaw dropping price tag. The Halcyon is the single most expensive ship in its class available to the UNSC.
The UNSC Charon class Light Frigate. This is a ground assault support vessel and was never intended for naval combat; However, when in a pinch the Charon is a cheaper alternative to a Stalwart class Light Frigate and offers similar combat capabilities. The Charon's fatal flaw is its serious lack of armor. A Charon class Frigate should only be utilized against opponents that do not have penetrating ammunition, as this could easily pierce the vessel's light armor and cause catastrophic damage.
More vessels are in the works.
