I think its very cool that the design of ships is reflecting the in universe progression of technology. However, as good as stuff like the Cobra V and Python II look, I'm a massive sucker for the flying wedges and I think it would be a shame if we didn't get any more of them going forward. Which got me thinking as to how to introduce more of those types of designs while still keeping that feeling of a living world. This is the scheme i came up with: taking classic space frames and modding them to the point they're almost entirely new ships. The hot-rod aesthetic works to differentiate them from both the base game ships and the new sleek designs while still respecting the technological progression the setting has undergone.

Its a fun glitch in Halo CE that lets you reload the weapon on your back but I think with a bit of balancing it could make for a fun feature. It really makes you feel like a Spartan and I'd like to see it return as a proper feature. Sadly I doubt it'll be back in the remake.
