'''UNSC Battle Group X-Ray''' was the first fleet given to [[Preston Jeremiah Cole|Admiral Cole]] to attack the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] at the [[Second Battle of Harvest]] in March [[2526]]. The fleet engaged the Covenant over Harvest, and due to a last moment of tactical inspiration on the part Admiral Cole, Battle Group X-Ray managed to destroy the [[Covenant super-destroyer]] in orbit. The battle group was disbanded or transferred to another flag-officer sometime prior to the [[Battle of Psi Serpentis]], as Admiral Cole then commanded [[Battle Group India|UNSC Battle Group India]].<ref name="Harvest"/><ref name="HWG"/><ref>'''[[Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe]]''', "[[The Impossible Life and the Possible Death of Preston J.
