The Cabal warship is a class of Cabal spacecraft, used for exploration and war.

Overview

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 Ketches, and the Harbingers—attacked and failed to even dent the Dreadnaught despite forcing the stalling of the Hive fleet.

An armada of Cabal warships would be used during the Red Legion's massive invasion of the Last City, some of which had a six-engine design. Both were armed with missiles, but the six-engine variant – one of which was Dominus Ghaul's flagship – could also deploy Launch Pods.

Identified Cabal warships

• Dantalion Exodus VI
• Dominus Ghaul's warship

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. Several are visible from the abandoned Cabal warbase that makes up the Crucible map Black Shield on Phobos, 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.
