Camber was a major manufacturing center for [[UNSC]] [[UNSC Navy|Navy]] fleet materials. As such, it held critical importance to the UNSC war effort and maintained its own grid of [[orbital defense platform]]s, as well as a formidable defensive fleet that included {{Class|Marathon|heavy cruiser}}s and {{Class|Paris|heavy frigate}}s.
