SRR stations come in different shapes. Some of them, such as ''[[Cradle]]'', are essentially large | SRR stations come in different shapes. Some of them, such as ''[[Cradle]]'', are essentially large plates of [[Titanium-A armor|titanium-A]], square-shaped and measuring one kilometer by one kilometer, while others, such as ''[[Anchor 9]]'' are more complex in construction, featuring three main sections connected by beamwork and a central hull. One Cradle-type station is capable of refitting six destroyers, three from her upper surface and three from her lower surface, in a matter of hours.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 156''</ref> The planet [[Reach]] had 18 SRR stations orbiting it by [[2552]].<ref name="Anchor"/><ref name="vis"/> The {{UNSCShip|Hopeful}} was constructed from two scrapped SRR stations. | ||
As the fortunes of war against the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] worsened, the UNSC began to use such stations as shields for their [[UNSC fleet|fleets]] in major battles. Four such stations were destroyed with all hands lost in the battles of [[Sigma Octanus IV]] and [[Fall of Reach|Reach]], including the UNSC ''Cradle'', which sacrificed itself to save the UNSC fleet at the [[Battle of Sigma Octanus IV]] from destruction. | |||
A curious result of the destruction of these stations is the creation of a field of very fine titanium-A dust particles, which have exhibited an ability to disperse the [[plasma]] from Covenant weapons systems.{{Citation needed}} | |||
