The Cabal Carrier is a class of Cabal spacecraft designed for transport and war.

History

A fleet of these carriers were used in Dominus Ghaul's invasion of the Last City. One of these carriers, the Orobas Vectura, was docked at Firebase Hades in the EDZ for the majority of the Red War.

Design

Carriers are several times larger than Cabal warships, and are capable of holding entire Cabal Legions as well as Imperial Land Tanks. They also serve as fuel tankers for warship flotillas.[1]

They are equipped with ten engines, five to a side, three above, and two below. The Carriers have their own airfields where aircraft take off from as well as gun turrets places around the area.

  • A crashed Cabal carrier can be seen in the background of the Aerodrome of Fleetbase Korus. It was presumably brought down by the Taken during their assault on Phobos.[2]
  • Being larger, possibly twofold larger, than a standard Cabal battlecruiser, compared to other warships this would put a carrier at least at the 50+ kilometer scale, which given the size of multiple Imperial Land Tanks and Legions, tens of thousands of Legionaries or more, this is consistent with what we see in-game.
