Hope-class destroyer

The  Hope-class Destroyer was a classification of starship utilised by the UNSC during the Human-Covenant War. After extensive battle analysis from conflict with the Covenant had shown, the only weapons that were suitably effective against the Covenant were Magnetic Accelerator Cannons, which delivered a solid slug at velocities of around half the speed of light, and to a certain extent, nuclear munitions. The Hope-class was an attempt to exploit this meager advantage to its full potential, hopefully aiding the UNSC in its ongoing struggle against the Covenant.
