| ==Service history==
| | The '''{{UNSCShip|Coral Sea}}''' was a [[UNSC Corvette|Corvette]] of the [[UNSC Navy]], and was assigned to the [[UNSC Home Fleet|Home Fleet]] in [[2552]].<ref name="goo">'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 186''</ref> |
| In [[2552#October|October 2552]], ''Coral Sea'' saw action at the [[Battle of Mombasa]]. The ''Coral Sea'', the {{UNSCShip|Dusk}}, {{UNSCShip|Paris}}, and {{UNSCShip|Redoubtable}} were the only ships close enough to pursue the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} and the [[Prophet of Regret]]'s {{Class|CAS|assault carrier}}, ''[[Solemn Penance]]'', into [[Slipstream space|slipspace]]. ''Coral Sea'' quickly outran the ''Dusk'' during the chase, losing contact with the [[prowler]].{{Ref/Reuse|goo}}

| Eventually, ''Coral Sea'' arrived at [[Installation 05]] in the [[Coelest system]]. To avoid being detected by the Covenant, the corvette hid close to Delta Halo's surface and spent a majority of its time scanning the installation. Several [[Relay station|communication relays]] across Installation 05's surface were discovered by the corvette's crew. At some point, ''Coral Sea'' encountered a Covenant infantry detachment attempting to tap into [[Uplift|one of Delta Halo's critical power conduits]]. The information recollected by the ''Coral Sea''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s crew was used in the post-war era to reconstruct Delta Halo locations for research and [[War Games]] simulations for [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan-IV supersolders]].<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/locations/delta-halo '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Delta Halo'']</ref>
| | ==History== |
| | | In [[2552]], ''Coral Sea'' saw action at the [[Battle of Earth]] in the [[Battle of Mombasa]]. She, the {{UNSCShip|Dusk}}, {{UNSCShip|Paris}} and {{UNSCShip|Redoubtable}} were the only ships fast enough to be able to pursue the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} and the [[High Prophet of Regret]]'s [[Regret's Carrier|Assault Carrier]] into [[Slipspace]]. ''Coral Sea'' quickly outran the ''Dusk'' during the chase and her current status is unknown.<ref name="goo"/> |
| Weeks after the [[Battle of Installation 05]] and the subsequent [[Fall of High Charity]], ''Coral Sea'' picked up the dying [[San'Shyuum]] [[Alo Sebukah]] from a damaged skiff orbiting [[Substance]] and transferred him to the secret [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] detention center, [[Midnight Facility]].<ref name="lootcrate8">'''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]''', ''[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #8]]''</ref>

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *The ''Coral Sea'' is likely named in reference to the [[Wikipedia:Battle of the Coral Sea|Battle of the Coral Sea]], a [[World War II]] naval battle in May 1942, in which the American navy was able to halt and completely deter Japan's attempt to invade Australia from New Guinea.
| |
| *The ''Coral Sea'' was initially mistakenly referred to as a frigate on [[Halo Waypoint]]'s Universe article for [[Installation 05]]. Since then, the error was fixed.
