The Pelicans from the ''Forward Unto Dawn'' arrived on the surface of the Ark, where they deployed [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] and UNSC vehicles to search for a landing zone for the ''Dawn''. ''[[Kilo 023]]'' and another Pelican deployed [[Master Chief Petty Officer]] John-117 and a squad of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODSTs]] at a cliff edge, near a series of Forerunner structures built into the desert terrain. Nearby, a third Pelican, which carried a [[M12 Chaingun Warthog|Warthog]], two [[M274 Mongoose|Mongooses]], and [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] including [[Chips Dubbo]], found a wide cliff which could serve as a landing zone for the ''Dawn'', but the Pelican was shot down by Covenant anti-air defenses.{{Ref/Reuse|theark}} | The Pelicans from the ''Forward Unto Dawn'' arrived on the surface of the Ark, where they deployed [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] and UNSC vehicles to search for a landing zone for the ''Dawn''.

With support from his accompanying ODST squad and his [[SRS99D-S2 AM sniper rifle]], John-117 cleared out two Covenant camps of Jiralhanae, Unggoy, and Kig-Yar. At the second camp, they disrupted the Covenant's efforts to assemble a [[Skar'wa-pattern Mantis|Mantis]]. Emerging on the other side of the Forerunner structures, they linked up with Dubbo and other survivors seeking refuge from the downed Pelican, where a lance of Covenant searched for survivors. Dubbo informed John-117 of the potential landing zone for the ''Dawn''. Upon defeating the Covenant patrol at the Pelican, a pair of [[Qavardu Workshop Prowler|Prowlers]] arrived at the area, but their operators were eliminated by the UNSC. Salvaging both UNSC and Covenant vehicles, John-117 and his team advanced into the Covenant-occupied canyon.

At this point, the Covenant have set up an attack force of infantry and [[Type-26 Shade]]s at a nearby [[Forerunner]] wall, which was defended by [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s. John-117 and his team eliminated the Covenant attackers, and the Sentinels, recognizing the humans as [[Reclaimer]]s, withheld their attacks. [[Sergeant Major]] [[Avery Johnson]], onboard ''Kilo 023'', spotted a structure that was similar to the [[Cartographer]] of [[Installation 04]] on the other side of the wall, and Keyes set the structure as the objective.{{Ref/Reuse|theark}} | ||
The landing zone was occupied by Ghosts, a [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]], several [[Covenant watchtower]]s, Jiralhanae and Unggoy infantries, and two [[Ogab'd-pattern anti-aircraft Wraith|Anti-Air Wraiths]] that were firing into an aerial battle between [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]] and [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornets]]. John-117 and his team, having gathered more Marine survivors, cleared the landing zone, allowing the ''Forward Unto Dawn'' to disengage from the space battle and descend to the surface of the installation, landing safely. From the ''Dawn''{{'}}s hangar, the UNSC was reinforced with three [[M808C Scorpion|Scorpion]] tanks, a [[M12 Chaingun Warthog|Warthog]] and a unit of Marines led by [[Gunnery Sergeant]] [[Marcus Stacker]]. With [[343 Guilty Spark]] having arrived to guide them, the mechanized force then fought their way back to the Forerunner wall, destroying numerous Covenant vehicles and ground troops. The Covenant had retaken the wall, bolstering their defenses with Wraiths, Choppers, and Shade turrets, but they failed to deter the UNSC's progress.{{Ref/Reuse|theark}} | The landing zone was occupied by Ghosts, a [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]], several [[Covenant watchtower]]s, Jiralhanae and Unggoy infantries, and two [[Ogab'd-pattern anti-aircraft Wraith|Anti-Air Wraiths]] that were firing into an aerial battle between [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]] and [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornets]].
