During the evacuation, it was ordered not to take off due to heavy enemy fire. However, the pilot disregarded instructions and took off anyway, which resulted in the destruction of the ship and the death of everyone on board. [[UNSC Army]] personnel considered the deployment of search-and-rescue teams, but the situation was quickly written off as hopeless as the vessel sank into the bay.

==Trivia==
*''6 Echo 2'' explodes two animation frames before it is struck by the plasma torpedo. The speakers in the ''[[Halo: Reach Legendary Edition]]'' commentary address this error; [[Lee Wilson]] jokes, ''"They should've [[Armor lock|locked their armor]]"''.<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhsbaA3pjEg ''Halo: Reach Legendary Edition Commentary - Part 5''</ref>
*''6 Echo 2'''s fate is similar to that of ''[[Cargo 3]]'' from ''[[Halo Wars]]'', as the pilots of both craft attempted to take off early despite nearby Covenant forces and were shot down shortly thereafter.
