The '''Cabal warship''' is a class of [[Cabal]] spacecraft, used for exploration and war.<ref name="DP">'''Bungie (2015/2/26)''', ''[[Destiny]], Activision Blizzard:'' [[Dust Palace (strike)|Dust Palace]] strike</ref>


'''Cabal Warships''' are a type of [[Cabal]] spacecraft used for exploration and war.<ref name="DP">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Dust Palace (strike)|Dust Palace]]''</ref>
==Overview==
These small frigates were mass produced during [[Dominus Ghaul]]'s regime, replacing the solitary, powerful cruisers that [[Emperor Calus]] favored. They were designed specifically to combat the the [[Hive]], whose use of portals negated tactical maneuvering and forced all battles to be fought at extremely close range. Cabal warships are meant to be individually expendable, operating in swarms, in tandem with larger [[Cabal carrier]]s that serve as logistical support. <ref>'''Bungie (2019/7/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Penumbra]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Confessions#Entry_II|Entry II]]''</ref>


==History==
Cabal warships are of very sturdy design as the ship [[Dantalion Exodus VI]] was able to puncture the hull of the [[Hive]] [[Dreadnaught]]. This was after the [[Battle of Saturn]] where the Awoken armada—which included hundreds of Ceres Galliots, a dozen [[Ketch|Ketches]], and the [[Harbingers]]—attacked and failed to even dent the Dreadnaught despite forcing the stalling of the Hive fleet. They have four main engines.
Centuries before the events of the [[Red War]], [[Dominus Ghaul]] exchanged the solitary cruisers of Calus's space fleet for swarms of close-quarter frigates designed to be independent, small, and highly maneuverable and adaptable. This was in response to the [[Hive]] threat, whose usage of space-time rifts let them close distances instantly and forced the Cabal to fight them at extremely close ranges.<ref name="Entry II"/> During the Cabal's occupation of [[Mars]], scores of warships could be seen stationed about the [[Sol System]], from the ruins of [[Freehold]]<ref name="DP"/> to an abandoned warbase on [[Phobos]],<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHwwUSIemm8 '''YouTube''' - ''Official Destiny Expansion II: House of Wolves Preview'' (3:16)]</ref> including an abandoned fleet on [[Mercury]].<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/Crucible_Arenas#Vertigo|Vertigo]]''</ref> In the aftermath of the Skyburners' offensive on the Dreadnaught, two warships can be viewed in a hologram on the bridge orbiting above and below [[Saturn]]'s rings.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PO8Vhcc7E3c&t=22m04s '''YouTube''' - ''Destiny Outbound Signal Quest The Taken King Walkthrough'' (timestamp 22:04)]</ref>


During the Red War, a fleet of ships along with Carriers attacked the Last City. The [[Tower]] was destroyed by swarms of long ranged rockets.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUlcG87K7qs&t=195s '''YouTube''' - ''Destiny 2 All Cutscenes'']</ref> During the course of the war, [[Shaxx]]'s [[Redjacks]] were able to board and acquire some ships for the Crucible.<ref name="D2"/> Cabal warships belonging to the Skyburners were also seen docked at [[Firebase Hades]] during the Guardian's mission to steal Thumos's [[Harvester]]. When [[Val Ca'uor]] attempted to seize control of the [[Leviathan (ship)|Leviathan]] from Emperor Calus, he brought a massive fleet of Red Legion warships to assault Calus's ship. These ships would also bombard the Celestial Observatory with [[Drop Pod|Drop Pods]] and missiles during Ca'uor's battle with the Guardian [[Raid]] team sent to stop him. Most of the ships in this fleet were decimated by the Guardians using the Leviathan's formidable armaments.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/5/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Warmind (expansion)|Warmind]], Activision Blizzard, [[Spire of Stars]]''</ref>  
An armada of Cabal warships would be used during the Red Legion's massive invasion of the [[Last City]], with a unique six-engine variant serving as [[Dominus Ghaul]]'s command ship, [[The Immortal]].<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Homecoming]]''</ref>


During the [[Clash of the Chosen]], fleets of [[Imperial Cabal]] warships and command carriers were seen in the skies of the [[Cosmodrome]], [[Nessus]], and [[Europa]] when the [[Rite of Proving|Rites of Proving]] for aspiring members of [[Empress Caiatl|Empress Caiatl's]] [[War Council]] were taking place. Shortly after [[Mars]] reappeared, Caiatl sent a fleet which included at least one Cabal warship to confront the [[The Lure|Lure]] over the [[Cradle]]. This ship was first spotted by [[Ikora Rey]] and [[Eris Morn]] as it flew past their camp while carrying a gigantic cannon which it lowered onto a nearby Cabal bunker.
Warships are capable of deploying [[Mining Lander]]s and [[Injection Rig]]s.


==Design==
==Named Cabal warships==
Cabal Warships were built to replace the solitary, elegant cruisers that Emperor Calus favored during his reign of the [[Cabal empire]]. Small frigate types by Cabal standards, are described by Calus as "ugly, hasty, and crude", individually expendable, and built for brute force and close-range combat.<ref name="Entry II">'''Bungie (2019/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Opulence]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore:Confessions#Entry_II|Confessions: Entry II]]''</ref> Other models were illustrated by the [[Skyburners|Skyburner]]'s command ship, [[Dantalion Exodus VI]], being deployed as a warship-sized boarding pod against [[Oryx]]'s [[Dreadnaught]] on the orders of Ghaul, and remaining largely intact.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Cabal#Ghost_Fragment:_Cabal_3|Ghost Fragment: Cabal 3]]''</ref> This is after the [[Awoken]] offensive failed in the [[Battle of Saturn]], where the [[Harbingers]] left not a mark upon the Hive vessel's armor.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[The Coming War]]'' opening cinematic</ref> They are also capable of deploying [[Mining Lander]]s, [[Injection Rig]]s,<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard''</ref> drills, long range-missiles (for other models) and boarding pods.<ref name="Entry II"/> They have four main engines,<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard''</ref> with a six-engine variant serving as [[Ghaul]]'s flagship, the [[The Immortal|Immortal]].<ref name="Home">'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Homecoming]]''</ref>
*[[Dantalion Exodus VI]]
*[[Retribution]]
*[[The Immortal]]


The Immortal is not the only known six-engine variant, however, as the [[The Almighty|Almighty]] has three within its Skybox flying around above. They are serviced by [[Cabal carrier|carrier]]s.<ref name="Entry II"/> The Red Legion utilized other warship classes capable of long-range combat during the invasion of [[The Last City]]; there are larger battlecruiser variants of the mainline warship for orbital bombardment and carrier operations. These ships boasted greater armaments and could carry multiple [[Land Tank]]s, [[Goliath Tank]]s, [[Thresher]]s, and [[Harvester]]s on-board. An example is the warship [[Retribution]].<ref name="D2">'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard''</ref><ref name="Eurogamer">[http://web.archive.org/web/20200804202217/https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-09-15-destiny-2-ps4-exclusive-content-playstations-lake-of-shadows-strike-city-apex-ship-borealis-weapon-and-retribution-map-details-4747 Eurogamer - Destiny 2 PS4 exclusive content - PlayStation 4's Lake of Shadows strike, City Apex ship, Borealis weapon, exclusive armour and Retribution map detailed]</ref> They may either be surviving examples of Calus's elegant "instruments of state", or converted and retrofitted per [[Umun'arath]]'s specifications into the Red Legion's fleets.{{Citation needed}}
==Notes==
A fleet of at least nine of these ships can be seen stationed above the ruins of [[Freehold]] from [[The Cortex]] during the [[Dust Palace (strike)|Dust Palace]] [[Strike]].<ref name="DP"/> Several are visible from the abandoned Cabal warbase that makes up the [[Crucible]] map [[Black Shield]] on [[Phobos]],<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHwwUSIemm8 '''YouTube''' - ''Official Destiny Expansion II: House of Wolves Preview'' (3:16)]</ref> as well as in the map [[Vertigo]] on [[Mercury]], where a Cabal expedition has mysteriously disappeared. There is also a six-engine variant used in the invasion of the Last City.


==Named Cabal warships==
During the [[Story]] mission [[Outbound Signal]] at least two warships can be seen orbiting above and below [[Saturn]]'s rings in a hologram on the bridge.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PO8Vhcc7E3c&t=22m04s '''YouTube''' - ''Destiny Outbound Signal Quest The Taken King Walkthrough'' (timestamp 22:04)]</ref> These may be support ships for the Dantalion Exodus. Dozens of warships destroyed the [[Tower]] during the [[Red War]] with swarms of rockets.
