According to [[Auntie Dot]], the spire was linked to an orbiting [[Covenant Supercarrier]]. The Spire was destroyed on August 12, [[2552]], by a UNSC counterattack.<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', ''[[Tip of the Spear]]''</ref>
Spire One was one of many spire installations set up by the Covenant across Szurdok Ridge to inconspicuously transport forces - usually in the form of [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Phantom dropships]] - to the ground from the cloaked [[Covenant supercarrier|supercarrier]], ''[[Long Night of Solace]]'' positioned above the region. During the [[Battle at Szurdok Ridge]] on August 12, 2552, Spire One was designated as the primary objective of [[Noble Team]]. Eventually, [[SPARTAN-B312]], with the aid of [[Jorge-052]], breached the spire's defenses, infiltrated the command center and disabled the shield. Once the Spartans were safely away, the [[UNSC frigate]] ''[[UNSC Grafton|Grafton]]'' destroyed the spire with its [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon|MAC gun]].{{Ref/Level|HR|[[Tip of the Spear]]}}
