The facility is located on the [[Babd Catha Ice Shelf]] in [[Eposz]], near one of the poles of the planet. [[NOBLE Team]] is deployed to Sword Base after a [[Covenant]] [[Ceudar-pattern heavy corvette|corvette]] begins attacking the facility. Due to the sensitive nature of the facility, [[Orbital Defense Platform|orbital MAC rounds]] are prohibited, forcing Noble Team to go groundside to defend the facility. | ||
Two [[UH-144 Falcon|Falcons]] drop Noble Team around Sword Base. After [[Catherine-B320|Kat]] and [[SPARTAN-B312|Noble Six]] clear the courtyard outside the facility, they are ordered by [[Sword Control]] to proceed to the main gate. After Six eliminates two Wraiths outside the gate, a [[D77-TC Pelican Dropship|Pelican]] drops off a [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle|Warthog]], which Kat and Noble Six ride to reactivate a [[COM]] array at [[Farragut Station]] to contact Command and an [[M71 Anti-Aircraft Gun|M71 Scythe anti-air gun]] at [[Airview Base]] to help clear the skies. After completing their task, they meet up with the rest of the team at Sword Base. They fight their way up through the atrium to the top floor, where Noble Six assists [[Emile-A239|Emile]] in driving off several [[Phantom]]s and [[Banshee]]s. A pair of [[Longsword]]s are then able to push through and chase off the corvette. As the corvette distances itself from Sword Base and begins to climb, the Longswords break off and the corvette is brought down by a slug from an Orbital Defense Platform. | Two [[UH-144 Falcon|Falcons]] drop Noble Team around Sword Base.
