The "S", or Salvation, in the supercarrier's three-letter classification code, "CSO" indicates that the carrier is a dedicated [[warship]] capable of destroying its opponents with [[energy projector]]s.

During the [[Fall of Reach]] the supercarrier ''[[Long Night of Solace]]'' spearheaded the Covenant invasion of [[Reach]] as the flagship of the [[Fleet of Valiant Prudence]], deploying numerous ground assets to the surface of Reach via [[Covenant spire|teleportation spires]] and destroying the {{UNSCship|Grafton}}. | |||
During [[Operation: UPPER CUT]], [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] [[Jorge-052]] transported an improvised [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine#Atypical uses|slipspace bomb]] toward ''Long Night of Solace'' aboard the [[SDV-class heavy corvette|corvette]] ''[[Ardent Prayer]]'' while [[SPARTAN-B312]] locked course with the supercarrier. After SPARTAN-B312 was jettisoned from the hangar, Jorge manually detonated the bomb, destroying both the corvette and the supercarrier at the cost of his own life.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level, ''[[Tip of the Spear]]''</ref><ref>'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level, ''[[Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace]]''</ref> | During [[Operation: UPPER CUT]], [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] [[Jorge-052]] transported an improvised [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine#Atypical uses|slipspace bomb]] toward ''Long Night of Solace'' aboard the [[SDV-class heavy corvette|corvette]] ''[[Ardent Prayer]]'' while [[SPARTAN-B312]] locked course with the supercarrier.

[[Sublime Transcendence]] served as the [[flagship]] of the [[Combined Fleet of Righteous Purpose]].<ref name="GOO"/> It was destroyed when one of the [[Unggoy]] on board, [[Kwassass]], inadvertently triggered a voice cue in a databox, thereby arming a [[NOVA Bomb]] they recovered from [[Reach]]: after playing a message by [[Admiral Whitcomb]], the detonation was caused by a group of [[Huragok]], who reinserted the databox inside the bomb itself, despite Kwassass's efforts to prevent them from doing so after realizing the threat.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 244''</ref> | |||
