'''Hive Warships''' are a class of [[Hive]] military spacecraft. These ships form part of [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx]]'s fleet of his [[Dreadnaught]] and are found near [[Saturn]].

==History==
A fleet of twelve Hive warships and smaller Tombships accompanied the Dreadnaught during Oryx's incursion of the [[Solar System]].<ref name="YouTube"/><ref name="Prologue"/>

The [[Battle of Saturn]] devastated this fleet. Although the Dreadnaught made it through unscathed, the [[Awoken]] fleet destroyed many Hive warships with the aid of Harbingers. The vast majority of the fleet was ultimately the victim of friendly fire when Oryx fired the Dreadnaught's main weapon, the blast indiscriminately obliterated both Hive and Awoken vessels within a set radius of the Dreadnaught.<ref name="Prologue"/>

A portion of the Hive fleet, including some warships, was outside the blast zone at the time and survived but so many ships were lost that Oryx was forced to stall his invasion of the inner system.<ref name="YouTube"/> Four are known to have survived the Dreadnaught's superweapon and one is later seen in the skies of the [[Oversoul Throne]] during [[Crota, Son of Oryx|Crota]]'s funeral,<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] - [[Last Rites]]''</ref> indicating they can slide between dimensions.

One particular Hive warship crashed into the [[Tangled Shore]] following the battle, which was helmed by [[In Anânh, Brood Queen]].{{Citation needed}}

Another warship, belonging to the [[Xivu Arath's Horde|brood]] of [[Xivu Arath, God of War]], is located within the [[Shattered Realm: Ruins of Wrath|Ruins of Wrath]] branch of the [[The Shattered Realm|Shattered Realm]] in the [[Ascendant realm]].

During the events of the [[Skirmish of Titan]], a warship of unknown affiliation would be seen crashed in the depths of [[Titan (moon)|Titan]]'s methane oceans, acting as the location where the Guardians would face [[Uorgotha, Scourge of the Deep]] and [[Azshradat, Celebrant of Xivu Arath]].<ref>'''Bungie (2023/5/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Deep]] - [[Salvage (activity)|Salvage]]''</ref>

The [[Lucent Brood]] would also use a [[Wreckage|warship]] when they attempted to locate and [[Necromancy|resurrect]] Oryx by crashing said warship into the depths of the moon's oceans as a beachhead for their ritual.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/5/22)''', ''Destiny 2: Season of the Deep - [[Rise]]''</ref>

==Design==
Like the [[Dreadnaught]], Hive warships are rectangular hexahedrons, but where the Dreadnaught's dimensions are consistent along its length, Hive warships taper slightly so that the front of the vessel is narrower than the rear.<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2015/08/13/we-analyze-destiny-the-taken-king-s-eight-new-crucible-maps.aspx '''GameInformer''': ''We Analyze Destiny: The Taken King's Eight New Crucible Maps'']</ref><ref name="Prologue">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQymFddoo9I '''YouTube''': ''Official Destiny: The Taken King Prologue Cinematic'']</ref><ref name="YouTube">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAZOVt4K8Tw '''YouTube''': ''Destiny: The Taken King - Intro Cinematic'']</ref>

They are equipped with twelve prongs, eight of which are near the "waist". The warships are armed with eight weapons along this waist which fire tracking [[Solar]] pulses; the waist is lit with a single orange band, presumably sharing power between guns.<ref name="YouTube"/><ref name="Prologue"/> Like the Dreadnaught they have a single engine, powered by Solar energies.<ref name="YouTube"/><ref name="Prologue"/> They are stated to have living components, and like the Hive themselves are a terrifying amalgam of predator genetics, arcane bio-energetics, and what is considered as Darkness incarnate<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''Destiny: The Taken King - [[Grimoire]]:[[Grimoire:Activities|Activities]]/[[Grimoire:Activities/Crucible Arenas|Crucible Arenas]], [[Grimoire:Activities/Crucible Arenas#The Dungeons|The Dungeons]]''</ref>

These ships seemed to have lost power when the [[Harbinger (Reef superweapon)|Harbinger]]s were launched, although the Dreadnaught was unaffected.<ref name="YouTube"/>
