Don't know about the top two, but the bottom one is probably the redesign Charon class, just the entire ship is there.
Maybe. It'd make sense if it were.

We plan to include the new Charon class in Rebellion, until we get more solid info about the other ships we have no intention of including them.
Yeah that does seem prudent. Also, will the new Charon class replace the old one? Or will you be able to research the newer Charon class separately, like the corvettes in Rebellion? Sorry if this has already been answered.

Reminds me of Mass Effect for some reason, possibly the colour.

It's very likely the new Charon class frigates will only be called in by the Infinity. 2 Frigates will jump into the gravity well at a cost. You'll basically be requisitioning them from FLEETCOM.
That sounds awesome.

God I hope not, those ships look like complete shit. Personally 343 dropped the ball with the UNSC in Halo 4. I like the new art direction, but I just wish it actually adhered to design elements that Bungie had established rather than saying "lolno we're going to make shit up."
The first ship looks alright, and the Infinity's design is pretty good. Besides that I agree. Unfortunately I feel like we're going to be seeing more of these ships in the next Halo games.

Might be a stupid question but are we absolutely 100% sure that these ships are UNSC and not something out of the didact's fleet? Just from looking at the Spartan Ops episode 1 frigates and comparing them to these, I don't really feel like they share and characteristics. Nor do I see and UNSC markings on any of these ships.
They're UNSC alright. These are some of the new ships that make up Battlegroup Dakota, part of the UNSC's Home Fleet. It's all in the Halopedia article.

I would agree with you but, the ships seen in this level, are just background props. They are not mentioned and not seen in any cinematic, even the bottom one isn't the new Charon class. So these are most likely fillers that might be replaced later on.If that is the case then I view these ships as I view the Covie Supercarrier in Reach, plot devices. Don't really fit into anything from the previous stories or the current story. An anomaly of sorts if you will, people taking artistic and creative liberties for the sake of advancing a story.
On another note, I was re-watching the Spartan Ops episodes, and I noticed that the Charon was refitted with shields. In the Rebellion port of SotP, will UNSC ships have shields but weaker than what the Covenant have?
