Description
The Marathon-class heavy cruiser was the primary classification of capital ship used by the UNSC Navy before and during the Human-Covenant War. Beginning production in 2513, the Marathon was introduced to combat the threat of the ever-worsening Insurrection. While not the largest or strongest warship created by humanity at that point, the Marathon was widely believed to be the most balanced.

At 1,192 meters (3,910 ft) long, Marathon-class heavy cruisers are more than twice the length of a typical frigate. Despite their size, Marathon-class cruisers are dwarfed by most Covenant cruiser classes. As the successor to the Halcyon-class cruiser, these vessels have a similar profile, with a forward 'head' and large engine segment protected by armor cowlings, yet are not not identical and feature a streamlined inwards-slanted underside.

Great ship and design detail. This is probably no longer maintained, but it would be great if the front MACs were functional turret blocks rather than cosmetics.
