This is the "Space Vulture". The broadsword was well equipped to go in on the Didact in Halo 4. This time, there's a ship that can be faster, stronger, and more heavily armed to encounter any new threat left from his forces. Some major changes such as heavy shielding and space flight including jump capabilities have been added; not to mention the multiple upgrades in firepower. Not even the Scarab can withstand this beast. It can even take a full powered hit from "Forward unto Dawn" and escape.
