The '''UNSC ''Saratoga''''' was a {{Class|Paris|heavy frigate}} in the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[UNSC Navy|Navy]]. It was assigned to the [[Epsilon Eridani Fleet]].{{Ref/Reuse|EVGGrafton}}{{Ref/Level|Id=tip|HR|Tip of the Spear}}

==History==
On [[2552#August|August 12, 2552]], during the [[Battle at Szurdok Ridge]], the ''Saratoga'', as well as the {{UNSCShip|Grafton}}, provided air support for UNSC forces engaging the [[Covenant]] on the ground. Though ''Grafton'' was destroyed when a {{Pattern|Sh'wada|supercarrier}}, ''[[Long Night of Solace]]'', emerged from [[Active camouflage|cloak]], ''Saratoga'' narrowly escaped.{{Ref/Reuse|tip}}{{Ref/Reuse|EVGGrafton}}

==Trivia==
*It is possible that the UNSC ''Saratoga'' was named in honor of the [[Wikipedia:Battle of Saratoga|Battle of Saratoga]], which occurred during the [[Wikipedia:American Revolutionary War|American Revolution]], therefore carrying on a lineage of [[Wikipedia:USS Saratoga|United States Navy ships]] named in honor of the battle.
*Like the ''Grafton'' and the [[UNSC Savannah|''Savannah'']], the ''Saratoga'' did not have its [[hull classification symbol]] painted on its bow.
