    I love how everyone in the community describes the ship as nothing but a Brick. It's a beautiful brick, simply a wonderful brick, and for a brick, she flew pretty good.
    What I wouldn't give to have a die cast replica of the Marathon.

      I disagree. I absolutely despise the Marathon and Valiant because they just don't have enough guns. The Autumn class is just the most gorgeous ship in my opinion, it has a good amount of guns and missiles and just a better brick since it's not a slab of metal. I also don't really like the Infinity due to the lack of detail about the placements of its armaments.

      ​​​​@@spartantraveler7251I agree with you, but interestingly when modding halo 4 i found out there are at least two full size in game models of the infinity, only one of the 3d in game models has a whole bunch of turret models including point defence and rocket turrets, it's used for the reveal from the clouds in that one mission, other close up missions use a lower-ish quality model without the turrets, if you are on about the actual weapons on the model.

    I believe the Canberra did survive.
    I don’t exactly remember where, but I recall reading Admiral Harper continuing his fight against Brute remnants in either South or North America. It’d be likely that he’d lead from his flagship.

    Just 20 by 2552. I find that a big stretch. Especially since the UNSC Navy still had a few hundred ships at the end of the war. I think that information should now be considered outdated by whoever first penned it.
    Also it's really a shame that the Marathon hasn't had more direct focus in the games. Same goes for the Valiant-class, which seriously needs to appear onscreen in some form.

    The Marathon class has the best namesake.
    About 10 years ago I read that, as a cost-cutting measure, the Marathon class abandoned the interior honeycomb structure that made the Halcyon so survivable and expensive, resulting in heavy losses of the class.
    For the life of me, I can't remember the source. Must've been one of the wikis. Can anyone confirm?

    • @AWACSRumble
      @AWACSRumble 3 місяці тому +2

      I believe it was actually the Halcyons that abandoned the honeycomb structure, which resulted in the Marathons not having them in the first place. According the Halopedia, after the first eleven Halcyons were built, the honeycomb was dropped for the remaining ships of the class as the cost outweighed the reward. (Until the Covenant showed up, resulting in the honeycomb Halcyons outliving their sisters.)
