However, due to budget constraint, projects for a heavy frigate would never started until at least the end of the century, also because naval battles were still hypothetical and, thus, needs for such warship were considered pointless.ДЄfter the capturing of the Bellerophon and the outbreak of the Insurrection, Naval Command issued a RFI that would lead to introduce a heavy frigate in the Navy: since it was the first time the Navy needed a heavy frigate, not many basis were put. So Sinoviet developed the new batch together with the new Stalwart batch, implementing many improvements and some Covevant and Forerunner reverse-engineered technologies such as shield-reinforced armor and high-definition sensors, making both classes most effective as ever.Д¬oncepts of a heavy frigate started in the mid-25 th century, when naval theorists assumed that as long as human empire continued to expand it would be a matter of time before some colonies would start to rise up because of this, these theorists design a frigate capable of engaging multiple light warships and, in the same time, to hold his own against equal opponent. Showing very good promises during Operation: TREBUCHET, during which was introduced, the Paris nonetheless was criticized in part due to high costs, compared to the contemporary Charon-class light frigate, but as soon as the Human-Covenant War began it proved to be a valuable asset in UNSC fleets therefore the Sinoviet began the construction of another batch, since the first one ceased in 2519, using improvements already designed for the Stalwart-class light frigate in the meantime, Paris ships still operational were recalled to Reach to be upgraded to Flight II, improving combat capabilities.ДЄfter the war, despite the introduction of the Strident-class heavy frigate, Naval Command ordered the third flight, recognizing the importance of these frigates in a fleet, especially in the troublesome post-conflict years. One of the two frigates introduced before the Great War, the Paris-class is optimized for atmospheric fire support and escort rather than transport, due to a very small hangar bay but a vast arsenal of weapons. The Paris-class heavy frigate is one of the five frigate classes currently in service with the UNSC Navy.

The USNC Katara is currently on display at the Rogue Brick Builders Lounge in Fort Worth, Texas. A piece this impressive deserves to be shown off, and if you want to see it yourself, youвЂ™re in luck. The UNSC Katara is almost 7 feet tall and a whopping 112 pounds. вЂњIt allowed me to achieve the shape I wanted very easily so I bought every one I could get my hands on,вЂќ he revealed. He was inspired to begin building the ship after he saw an angled bumper piece, as he told the Brothers Brick. Witt named his ship the UNSC Katara after the waterbender from Avatar: The Last Airbender. ItвЂ™s a class of ships fielded by the United Nations Space Command, humanityвЂ™s supreme military body in the Halo universe, which is at war with the alien Covenant Empire. Halo fans will immediately recognize WittвЂ™s creation as a Paris-class heavy frigate which was featured heavily in the Halo: Reach campaign. After five years of work, he unveiled the finished product in an interview with the Brothers Brick, a website dedicated to covering the adult LEGO community. Steve Witt has been tracking the progress of his Halo LEGO project on his Flickr page. A Halo fan has finally finished his 5-year project of building a United Nations Space Command frigate using LEGO.
