CPV-class heavy destroyer

The CPV-class heavy destroyer, referred to by the Covenant as the Penance-class, is one of several destroyer-type warships used by the Covenant.
== Specifications ==
At an overall length of 700 meters, the CPV is essentially a scaled down version of the SDV-class light cruiser, with the Sinaris-pattern destroyer originally spawning as a stable mutation of the class' Tanus and Dur'an design patterns.
=== Crew and complement ===
For normal operations, the CPV-class requires a total of 406 personnel. This includes four Superiors who command the vessel, along with four hundred Menials who man the ship's general systems. Two Huragok are provided for general maintenance duties.
=== Armament ===
As an executioner, the CPV-class destroyer is built for nothing less than heavy combat. Its main weapon is a ventral-mounted Infernus-pattern superheavy plasma lance which is powered directly by a dedicated pinch fusion reactor. Secondary weapons include several plasma cannon batteries, plasma torpedo silos, and pulse laser turrets.
