"I wish I could tell you it was difficult... but it wasn't."
— Escharum to John-117.[2]

A battle for Installation 07 was an engagement that took place in late 2559 between the United Nations Space Command (UNSC) and the Banished.[2] The battle was a major engagement ultimately resulting in the scattering of both UNSC and Banished forces on Installation 07, leading to a protracted conflict on the ring.

Prelude

The entirety of the UNSC Armed Forces were fractured by the Guardians.

When the Created conflict began with the rogue AI Cortana subjugating major planets and governments across the galaxy with her Guardians, the UNSC Armed Forces were broken with the UNSC Infinity forced into hiding. Cortana ushered in a new era with her Created as rulers, enforcing martial law across their territory. The Infinity conducted operations against the Created in limited capacity.

Battle

The diminished UNSC forces led by the UNSC Infinity went to Installation 07 and were ambushed by a group of mercenary raiders known as the Banished.[6][7] Four Banished dreadnoughts attacked the supercarrier, with one ramming the dorsal hull, causing massive structural damage and prompting a general evacuation. Realizing the hopelessness of their situation, Captain Lasky informed the crew that the ship had been compromised and ordered all forces to retreat to the Ring’s surface before being escorted to a lifepod.

After ensuring Captain Lasky’s lifepod was away, Fireteam Taurus organized the evacuation of the remaining Spartan-IVs, marines, and crew to the surface of Installation 07 under fire from Banished artillery. The leader of the Banished, Atriox, boarded the Infinity and defeated Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 in a melee before tossing him into space.[5] During the battle, the Infinity suffered heavy damage and started to come apart.[8]

Aftermath

"We lost. Lost everything. There's nothing left for us here. I don't even know where here is."
— Echo 216's pilot to John-117.[3]

The conflict resulted in extensive damage to Installation 07, as well as leaving Echo 216 and its pilot adrift near the installation.[3] Additionally, the battle resulted in heavy casualties among personnel assigned to the UNSC Infinity, with the ship crash-landing on the ring.[2][4]

Despite the damage, the Banished would occupy the ring leaving UNSC forces to group up on one of the fragments. They would form a resistance which included three Spartans.[6]
