At least one corvette, ''[[Ardent Prayer]]'', was in the [[Reach|planet]]'s orbit when Operation: UPPER CUT commenced. As the vessel's communications were being jammed by the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]], it was engaged by the {{UNSCship|Savannah}}, which was assisted by several [[Sabre]] fighters, including one piloted by [[SPARTAN-B312]] and [[Jorge-052]]. The corvette was destroyed by a [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine]] used as a makeshift bomb and took the supercarrier ''Long Night of Solace'' with it thanks to the trap.<ref name="lnos"/> | At least one corvette, ''[[Ardent Prayer]]'', was in the [[Reach|planet]]'s orbit when Operation: UPPER CUT commenced.
