==Service history==
==Operational history==
The ''Orion''-class assault carrier was built for war against rebellious [[human colonies]] during the [[Insurrection]]. The class was conceived as a new type of carrier that could directly aid the [[United Nations Space Command]]'s sustained ground operations in addition to maintaining aerospace control over contested worlds. Throughout the Insurrection, the appearance of a [[battle group]] led by an ''Orion''-class assault carrier was seen as a symbol of the UNSC's military strength.{{Ref/Reuse|canon fodder armory}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
