FFG-201 was a Mulsanne-class light frigate in the service of the UNSC Navy during the post-Covenant war era.[1] The ship's hull code is identical to that of the Charon-class light frigate UNSC Forward Unto Dawn, which played an instrumental role (and was ultimately destroyed in) the Battle of Installation 00 - ending the Human-Covenant War. The FFG-201 hull code is likely a reuse in order to inherit Forward Unto Dawn's legacy.[4]
Service history[edit]
FFG-201 served in the UNSC Navy between the Mulsane-class' launch in 2553,[2] and its eventual decommissioning in the following years. By 2559-2560, the ship had been grounded in the Chiltift Basin shipbreaking yards on Camber - with these yards later becoming the site of a raid by Spartans Sigrid Eklund and Hieu Dinh around this time.[5]
Production notes[edit]
FFG-201 is featured as the setting of the Halo Infinite multiplayer map Breaker, first introduced in Season 02: Lone Wolves. It shares its hull classification symbol with UNSC Forward Unto Dawn, a vessel first introduced in Halo 3 and later prominently featured in Halo 4. Forward Unto Dawn is canonically a Charon-class light frigate, while the FFG-201 found in Halo Infinite is a Mulsanne-class frigate - a distinctly different vessel. It is unclear whether this label is simply intended as an Easter egg or as a distinct canonical inclusion; early stages of the map's production showcase the FFG-201 logos as a deliberate element that was kept from pre-production to final art pass, indicating that the inclusion was deliberate on the part of 343 Industries. According to older Canon Fodder posts, UNSC ships may reuse hull codes in order to "inherit" the identity of more storied vessels - in the case of FFG-201, this may indicate it was deliberately chosen to inherit Forward Unto Dawn's legacy.[4]

Within a series, generally. But number sequences can be skipped for various reasons (planned ships that never get produced, bureaucratic maneuvering, etc) and older numbers reused for new ships in order to “inherit” the identity of a particular storied vessel."
