The Battleship Halberd, or simply just Halberd, is a flying battleship owned by Meta Knight of the Kirby series. It first appeared in Kirby Super Star, and has made subsequent appearances in Kirby: Squeak Squad and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. In all likelihood, it is named after developer HAL Laboratories, the company that designed both the Kirby games and the Super Smash Bros. series.
