During [[Operation: BIRD IN HAND]] in [[2558#October|October 2558]], [[Blue Team]] hijacked several Covenant Banshees to destroy ''[[Argent Moon]]'s'' reactor cooling system, allowing them to [[self-destruct|scuttle]] the station. With the Banshees being too slow to escape the explosion in time and their Pelican presumably destroyed, Blue Team abandoned the craft in favor of the {{Class|Winter|prowler}} [[ONI Acrisius|ONI ''Acrisius'']].<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''', campaign level ''[[Blue Team (level)|Blue Team]]''</ref> | |||
