'''Sol Defense Group 3/A-5''' is a [[Battle Group]] of the [[UNSC]] Navy. The only information for this group comes from the [[Halo: Arms Race]] promotional [[Halo 3]] video released on June 10th, 2007.

The '''Sol Defense Group 3/A-5''' is a [[battle group]] of the [[UNSC]] [[UNSC Navy|Navy]].{{Ref/Film|Id=lf|Film=Halo: Landfall|Story=[[Halo: Arms Race|Arms Race]]}}


==History==
The group likely was engaged in combat with the [[Covenant]] in the First and/or [[Second Battle of Earth]], as the video's text says the group only has 2 ships out of 8. The group requests rearmament since it's readiness level is critical. [[Misriah]] armory factories on [[Mars]] then are shown mass producing equipment for the Battle Group, which likely not only uses it ships for space combat, but also assists [[Marines]] in ground engagements since the production of Marine vehicles ([[Warthogs]] and [[Pelicans]]) and weapons ([[Sniper Rifles]], [[Battle Rifles]], and [[M6D Magnum Sidearm]]s) are shown.  
===Battle for Earth===
The group at the time of the initial [[Covenant]] [[Battle of Earth|attack on Earth]] consisted of two active ships out of eight. Two {{Class|Marathon|heavy cruiser}} were docked planetside. Since their readiness levels was registered as "critical", the group requested for rearmament from the [[Misriah Armory]] factories on [[Mars]]. The movement of cruisers dock may suggest that it was about to be launched.{{Ref/Reuse|lf}}


The Marine unit designated [[S4/BAG/2/5]] was assigned to the battle group.{{Ref/Reuse|lf}}
Specifically, the Marine unit (of unknown size) called [[S4/BAG/2/5]] could be assigned to the Battle Group, as it is seen in the video. The Marines themselves are seen in the trailer preparing for combat, and at least one ([[Benjamin M. Nunez]]) is not a recruit, while the other Marine(s) pictured likely are.
