The Truth & Reconciliation is a CCS-class Covenant battle cruiser. CCS cruisers are long, vaguely manta-shaped spacecraft capable of launching dozens of fighters. They are typically armed with several dozen energy weapons. Covenant capital ships come in varying classes and sizes, though military observers note that there is a great deal of variance--weaponry, length, estimated tonnage, fighter compliments, speed, and maneuvering capabilities--within a particular class. The primary use of these ships is to transport ground forces, though they are quite capable of battle in space.

The Truth & Reconciliation was the cruiser that held Captain Jacob Keyes prisoner during the events on Halo. The ship was destroyed by the surviving UNSC forces to stop the Flood from escaping Halo.

Covenant often name their ships with different names that "personify" their religious significance. Known names for Covenant CCS-class ships are Truth & Reconciliation, Purity of Spirit, and Sacred Promise.
