The '''UNSC ''Chioglossa''''',<ref name="Waypoint">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-clarity-grace '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder'']</ref> [[hull classification symbol]] '''FFG-127''', was a {{Class|Charon|light frigate}} in the [[UNSC Navy]]'s [[Seventh Fleet]].{{Ref/Reuse|fleet}}
==Service history==
The UNSC ''Chioglossa'' engaged the [[Fleet of Sacred Consecration]] above [[Earth]] during the opening stages of the [[Battle of Earth]] on [[2552#October|October 20, 2552]], but was crippled during the battle when it was cut in half by [[Covenant]] weapons. Upon seeing the crippled ship in Earth's low orbit during [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|his]] [[Operation: BUMRUSH|drop]] into [[New Mombasa]], [[Lance Corporal]] [[Kojo Agu]] "took back" a sarcastic remark his squad mate [[Michael Crespo]] had previously made about the Navy's response to the invasion.<ref>'''''Halo 3: ODST''''', campaign level, ''[[Prepare to Drop]]''</ref>
==Trivia==
The ''Chioglossa'' was likely named in reference to the [[Wikipedia:Golden-striped salamander|golden-striped salamander]], the only species in the genus ''Chioglossa''.
==Production notes==
*The code "HU_MIL_SHIP" is painted on the ship's hull. This is not the vessel's actual name but a placeholder graphic indicating HUman MILitary SHIP. It is structured much like the directory system of the game's files (ex. human/military/).
*The UNSC ''Chioglossa'''s model is a reuse of the destroyed [[UNSC Forward Unto Dawn|''Forward Unto Dawn'']] model from the end of ''[[Halo 3]]''.

This '''unidentified UNSC frigate''' ([[Hull Classification Symbol|FFG-127]]) was a ship in the UNSC [[Home Fleet]].  It engaged the Covenant fleet during the [[Battle of Earth]], but was destroyed during the battle when it was cut in half by Covenant weapons.  Upon seeing the destroyed ship on his drop into [[New Mombasa]], [[Kojo Agu|Romeo]] "took back" what he previously said about the [[UNSC Navy]] "putting up a good fight".
