The {{UNSCShip|Dusk}} was a [[UNSC Prowler|Prowler]] of the [[UNSC Navy]]. It was assigned to the [[UNSC Home Fleet|Home Fleet]] <ref>[[Ghosts of Onyx]] page 184</ref>. | |||
==Background== | |||
Unlike many other prowlers in service, the ''Dusk'' was manned and operated by regular naval (instead of [[ONI]]) personnel. Prior to the [[Battle of Earth]], the ''Dusk'' had seen eighteen months of constant action<ref>[[Ghosts of Onyx]] page 288</ref>. | |||
===[[Battle of Earth]]=== | |||
===Battle of Earth=== | The ''Dusk'' was in Earth orbit when the Battle of Earth occurred. She was caught between rotations and was forced to engage with only 43 of a normal complement of 90 crewmen<ref>[[Ghosts of Onyx]] page 184</ref>. When the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} pursued the [[Assault Carrier]] of the [[Prophet of Regret]], the ''Dusk'' was one of four ships in a position to follow. However, only the ''Dusk'' was able to catch the [[slipspace]] wake caused by the carrier. Her companions, the {{UNSCShip|Coral Sea}}, the {{UNSCShip|Paris}}, and the {{UNSCShip|Redoubtable}} moved further ahead in the slipstream and were lost. | ||
=== Installation 05 === | |||
As a result, by the time they arrived at [[Installation 05]], the ''In Amber Clad'' had been destroyed, and the [[Great Schism|Civil War of the Covenant]] had already begun. After observing the [[Second Fleet of Homogenous Clarity]] destroy itself, the ''Dusk'' and her companions returned to Earth via slipspace.<ref>[[Ghosts of Onyx]] page 199</ref> | |||
=== | === Deployment to Onyx === | ||
Upon | Upon returning to Earth, the ''Dusk'' was caught in the space battle unfolding in orbit, but was redeployed to [[Onyx]] in support of [[Battlegroup Stalingrad]] following the reception of [[Dr. Catherine Halsey]]'s distress signal. Not involved in direct combat during the [[Battle of Onyx]], the only part the ''Dusk'' participated in the Battle was the laying of [[Hornet mines]] which provided some support. The ''Dusk'' survived the destruction of the battle group by [[Covenant]] forces. | ||
While the remaining Covenant ships were being destroyed by [[Sentinel]]s, the ''Dusk'' was attempting to escape the system and return back to Earth<ref>[[Ghosts of Onyx]] page 378</ref>. It is unknown whether or not she escaped. However, evidence suggests she did escape and return to [[Earth]]. | |||
==Armament== | |||
It carried several ordnance configurations, such as [[BLACK WIDOW Communication Satellite|BLACK WIDOW COMSat]]s<ref>[[Ghosts of Onyx]] page 300</ref> and [[HORNET Mine]]s.<ref>[[Ghosts of Onyx]] page 187</ref> | |||
