Marathon-class heavy cruiser

The Marathon-class heavy cruiser is a cruiser classification used by the UNSC Navy. The class was meant to be a replacement for the ageing Halcyon-class light cruisers. Their numbers are limited and they are usually commanded by the highest-ranking officers.

During the early years of the Human-Covenant war, Marathons played a crucial role in defending the outer colonies, although most ended up getting destroyed during that period of time.
