They load the reactor from the ''Spirit of Fire's'' [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine|FTL drive]] onto two [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelicans]], intending to use them to ferry the drive to the installation's star for detonation, causing the star to go [[supernova]] and destroy the [[shield world]]. After [[Victor 397]] and another Pelican carrying the FTL drive core are shot down by [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]], [[James Gregory Cutter|Captain Cutter]] changes the task to a ground operation and UNSC ground forces are tasked with getting the core to the top of the Apex Base Site where it can be teleported to the [[the Apex]]. | ||
