Glorious Advance is a Kez'katu-pattern Phantom dropship used by the Covenant.[1]

Service history[edit]

By September 2552 during the Battle of Installation 04, it was attached to the flagship of the Fleet of Particular Justice, the Seeker of Truth.[1] When the Mjern-pattern agricultural support ship, Infinite Succor, was attacked by a previously unknown enemy, a team of Special Operations Sangheili and Unggoy, led by Rtas 'Vadumee, was dispatched to secure it.[1] The Glorious Advance transported 'Vadumee and his troops to the Infinite Succor.[1] It was later radioed by 'Vadumee and picked him up just before the Infinite Succor, now overrun by the Flood, was destroyed.[4]

Crew[edit]

During the Battle of Installation 04, Glorious Advance was crewed by a team of Special Operations Sangheili and Unggoy, led by Rtas 'Vadumee to board a Flood-attacked Infinite Succor.[1]
