'''Admiral''' is a senior [[commissioned officer]] rank of the [[UNSC Navy]].


'''Admiral''', abbreviated to '''ADM''', is a [[commissioned officer|senior commissioned officer]] rank of O-9 in the [[United Nations Space Command]] [[UNSC Naval Command|Naval Command]] (NAVCOM) [[UNSC rank structure|rank structure]]; including the [[UNSC Navy]] and [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]. It is preceded by [[Vice Admiral]], and subordinate to a [[Fleet Admiral]].{{Ref/Book|Id=OSFMP8-140|OSFM|Section=PART 8: UNSC ORGANISATION, NAVCOM Ranks|Page=140-141}}
During peacetime, it is the highest military rank, and is equal with the rank of [[General]] in the [[UNSC Marine Corps]]. However, during times of war, senior Admirals may be promoted to the rank of [[Fleet Admiral]], which outranks Admiral.

While Admiral is a rank of its own, the title "Admiral" is often used to refer to any of the flag officer ranks of the UNSC Navy:
*[[Fleet Admiral]]
*'''Admiral'''
*[[Vice Admiral]]
*[[Rear Admiral (Upper Half)]]
*[[Rear Admiral (Lower Half)]]
 
Due to the ambiguity of the title "Admiral", Admirals are often known as a "Four Star Admiral" or "Full Admiral" to distinguish it from subordinate ranks of Admiral. The term "Four Star Admiral" comes from the rank insignia worn on the uniform.
