During [[Operation: SILENT STORM]] in [[2526]], [[Blue Team]] used gravity lifts leading from the fabrication barns on the [[Ring of Mighty Abundance]] to send [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]]s aboard the [[Covenant supercarrier]] ''[[Hammer of Faith]]'' and destroy it.<ref>'''[[Halo: Silent Storm]]'''</ref>

In [[2552#April|April 2552]], during the [[Battle of Fumirole]], [[Spartan-III]] [[Catherine-B320]] attempted to use the gravity lift of the {{Class|CCS|battlecruiser}} ''[[Sanctity of Purification]]'' to deliver a [[Fury tactical nuclear weapon]] aboard the ship and destroy it from within. However, Kat was injured by a shot from a [[Type-26 Banshee]], causing [[Thom-A293]] to take the warhead instead. With little time until detonation, Thom flew into the gravity lift using his [[Series 8 jetpack]] and threw the bomb into the hanger bay he landed in. However, while Thom was successful in destroying the battlecruiser with this maneuver, he was unable to escape the ship in time and perished in the explosion.<ref name="DH">''[[Deliver Hope]]''</ref>

In [[2552#September|September 2552]], during the [[Battle of Installation 04]], [[Spartan-II]] [[John-117]] and several ODSTs had to fight their way aboard the {{Class|CCS|battlecruiser}} ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'' using the gravity lift, which was heavily defended by Covenant forces.<ref name="Truth and Reconciliation">'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', campaign level ''[[The Truth and Reconciliation]]''</ref> Later, the Master Chief had to fight his way back aboard the battlecruiser using the gravity lift after overwhelming [[Flood]] forces caused the Master Chief to jump out of the ship.<ref>'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', campaign level ''[[Keyes]]''</ref> When the human forces later took control of the battlecruiser, the gravity lift was one of two methods of entry used to gain access to the ship.

During the early stages of the [[Battle for Earth]], the Master Chief was ordered to reach the ''[[Solemn Penance]]'s'' gravity lift to board the assault carrier and capture the [[Prophet of Regret]].
