The missile battery in Halo: Reach.

This unidentified UNSC missile battery is a surface-to-air missile battery used by the UNSC.

Design details

Each battery can hold up to six missiles. The battery uses an universal weapons emplacement base similar to the one used by the M71 Anti-Aircraft Gun.

Operational history

In August 2552, during the Siege of New Alexandria, two such batteries were used by SPARTAN-B312 to cripple a Covenant SDV-class heavy corvette holding station over the city, thus allowing three civilian transports to escape the city. [1]

The UNSC Infinity had several of these missile batteries mounted on its dorsal surface. After the ship crash landed inside the shield world Requiem in July 2557, John-117 had to reactivate the batteries to help repel Covenant forces.[2] When the Infinity came back to Requiem in 2558, some of these missile batteries were deployed on a select few UNSC bases on Requiem's inner surface, such as Galileo Base.[3]
