UNSC Pillar of Autumn II is an Autumn-class heavy cruiser in service with the UNSC Navy and the lead ship of her class, commissioned into service as a replacement for the Marathon class after the end of the Human-Covenant War. She was named after the UNSC Pillar of Autumn, a Halcyon-class light cruiser which played a pivotal role in the events leading up to the conclusion of the war.[2] Like her predecessor, the Pillar of Autumn II is colloquially known as the "Autumn", thereby serving as her class' namesake.[9]

Using improvements and modifications made to the Halcyon-class light cruiser for Operation: RED FLAG as a starting point, the naval architects at SinoViet Heavy Machinery have added energy shield-reinforced armor, powerful fusion drives, long-range targeting matrixes, and a state-of-the-art magnetic accelerator cannon. These new weapons and systems are continually being improved to give the UNSC a competitive edge in battles against Covenant remnants and other threats that may yet arise." (Retrieved on Apr 7, 2017)
