This page needs a table like other battle pages- Spartan 1138
Note: I moved Battle of Installation 04 to concurrent but left it in previous because technically both are true (time space anomoly).

losses[edit]
I can estimate that the covenant have lost at less 1,200,000 soldier
discrepency[edit]
By Cortana's estimate, there were approximately 500 ships at the Unyielding Hierophant, and it was made clear that they knew the location of earth and were basically just waiting for the order to attack. At the start of Halo 2, there were only about 14 covenant cruisers, AND (this is really the more important part) Cortana herself said that they were surprised that the humans were on earth. They were most likely looking for an artifact on earth, like they did on reach, and were not expected to have to engage the strongest human armada in the galaxy. Furthermore, why bring bombs to destroy the MAC guns internally when you have massive plasma guns with pinpoint accuracy.

I think this page should be named "Raid on the Unyielding Hierophant", as "Operation: FIRST STRIKE" only refers to the UNSC operation, and battle article titles are supposed to be neutral. See discussion here: Talk:Battle of Ariel. --Jugus 17:07, December 1, 2009 (UTC)
