During or after [[2540]], a ''Diligence''-class destroyer, the {{UNSCShip|Kronstadt}}, deployed a squad of [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers]] and a [[SPARTAN-II program|SPARTAN-II commando]], [[Cal-141]], via [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|SOEIV]] to the Covenant-occupied planet [[Heian]]. The commando team infiltrated a former alien settlement, where they engaged several [[Unggoy]] and a [[Jiralhanae]] [[Unidentified Jiralhanae chieftain (Heian)|chieftain]] before assassinating a Covenant [[Unidentified Prophet (Heian)|Prophet]]. After the mission, which resulted in the deaths of the Spartan and [[Checkman|one ODST]], the vessel retrieved the survivors.{{Ref/Reuse|Babysitter}}{{Ref/Reuse|CFClarity}}
