*If you look at the designations of the [[UNSC]] frigates firing on the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]] on the level [[The Storm]], they all say ''Forward Unto Dawn'' and the ships numbers are the same as well. This shows that Bungie only made 2 Frigate models, with the Aegis Fate model only being used for the multiplayer level "[[Sandtrap]]"

*The ''Forward Unto Dawn'' was originally the flagship of [[Fleet Admiral Hood]]. However, he left it in the capable hands of [[Miranda Keyes]] as she fought her way to the [[Ark]].

*It is interesting to note that in the level, ''[[The Ark]]'', Marines ask if the ''Dawn'' was able to be operated within the atmosphere. This is an odd question to ask seeing as it was in [[Earth]]'s atmosphere when attacking the Dreadnought, and ''[[UNSC In Amber Clad|In Amber Clad]]'' was in Earth's atmosphere as well during the [[First Battle of Earth]]. This shows that [[Frigates]], at the very least, are capable of operating within atmosphere. But it does lead to the question that asks whether or not The Ark's atmosphere is the same as Earth's. It could also be asking whether or not the ''Dawn'' was fit to survive atmospheric reentry at such an incredible speed.

*In all 3 ''[[Halo]]'' games, something happens to the [[UNSC]] ship that takes you to the forerunner installation. In [[Halo:CE]] the ''[[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]]'' crashes and is destroyed on Alpha Halo. In [[Halo 2]] ''[[UNSC In Amber Clad|In Amber Clad]]'' gets taken over by the [[Flood]] at Delta Halo and crashes into [[High Charity]] and most likely gets blown up during [[High Charity]]'s destruction and in [[Halo 3]], the ''Forward Unto Dawn'' gets split in half by the portal closing after going to the Ark.

*It is said that frigates have 30 archer missile pods. The Dawn however has 50: 2 behind its bay, 2 in front of its bay, 2 on both sides of its [[MAC]] gun and one on each side of the thrusters.

*In the final level of ''[[Halo 3]]'', [[Halo (Halo 3 Level)|Halo]], before the ship is torn in half, there is no mention or sight of the crew, which had boarded the ''[[Shadow of Intent]]'' before [[Sergeant Johnson]] positioned ''Forward Unto Dawn'', this is mentioned in the cutscene at the beginning of the level [[Halo (Halo 3 Level)|Halo]], [[Rtas 'Vadum]] can be heard saying "We are all aboard, [[Human]]s and [[Elites]]".

*If you were to play a modded [[sandtrap | Sandtrap]] map with a second frigate on the name of it will be Forward Unto Dawn. This is because the BSP tag of the ''[[Aegis Fate]]'' is a modified ''Forward Unto Dawn'' tag, and when a second Frigate is spawned on Sandtrap, the tag's modifiers aren't used for it.

*In a Star Trek Armada II Shippack including UNSC Frigates, the Forward Unto Dawn was released as a hero ship, along with the [[UNSC Gettysburg]]. Its special improvements are enlarged size and more hull strength.

*It is rare to a very high ranking officer as [[Terrence Hood|Lord Hood]] to have a such small vessel as the flagship of the Home Fleet. This is propbably becasue many of the most powerfull UNSC ships were destroyed during the first actions of the [[Second Battle of Earth]].
