The '''UNSC ''Iwo Jima''''' was a [[UNSC destroyer|destroyer]] in service with the [[UNSC]] [[UNSC Navy|Navy]]. During the [[Human-Covenant War]] in [[2552]], the ''Iwo Jima'' was assigned to [[Battle Group Omicron]] of the [[UNSC Home Fleet]] that was sent to aid the UNSC forces in the [[Onyx Conflict]].


==Background==
The '''''UNSC Iwo Jima''''' was a [[UNSC]] destroyer in [[2552]].
The ship was part of [[Admiral]] [[Carl Patterson|Patterson]]'s [[Battle Group Omicron]] and saw action at the [[Onyx Conflict]]. During the first engagement against [[Joyous Exultation Covenant|Covenant]] ships in that battle, she grazed a [[Covenant carrier]] while attempting to disengage and crashed into two [[Covenant destroyer|destroyers]]. The ''Iwo Jima'' then self-destructed, destroying the two enemy warships in the process.<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 298''</ref>


==Namesake==
It was part of [[Admiral Carl "Buster" Patterson]]'s task force sent to [[Onyx]] to retrieve [[Dr. Catherine Halsey]] as well as the [[Spartan-II]]s and [[Spartan-III]]s. During the first attack on [[Covenant]] ships in orbit in the [[Battle of Onyx]], the ''Iwo Jima'' was trying to escape the fight when it grazed a [[Covenant]] carrier and spun out of control, and crashed into two Covenant destroyers. The ship then self-destructed, taking both ships with it.
*The ship's name refers to the [[wikipedia:Battle of Iwo Jima|Battle of Iwo Jima]], which was fought between the [[United States of America]] and the [[Wikipedia:Japan|Japanese Empire]] in February and March [[1945]], during the Pacific Campaign of [[World War II]].
