Is this the same as FLEETCOM? -ED 22:04, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Navy Ranks

I made a small edit to Navy Ranks section, fixed some spelling.

Uniforms

I don't know about anyone else, but when Halo 2 first came out, one of the biggest changes that I noticed was the lack of the candy-coloured Navy Personnel. I was very excited when they made an appearance in Halo 3. Just thought, but why not include a section on personnel and uniforms to the Navy thread. I know that Stephen Loftus had 2 diagrams out about the uniform colours, and I have my own Ideas based on screens from Halo CE: Custom Edition, and Halo 3. --Rimnek 015 15:52, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Small Comment Changed

I changed this comment: "the only combat-capable warships seen were the three UNSC Frigates."

into: "the only combat-capable warships seen were the three UNSC Frigates and UNSC Longsword."

Because just before Floodgate in the cutscene you see Longswords and one Longsword is shot down at the Ark. Also, due to their space operations, they can't be a part of the UNSC Air Force.

Pársec Speed

I understand that the speed of human starships is 2.1 lightyears/day. I have a suggestion: You have to add 1.7 parsecs/day. Think about it. The technology of that time would be sufficient to reach that speed.--H A L O Legend 22:29, October 9, 2009 (UTC)

Wet Navy

I believe that a portion of this page, or perhaps a new page, be devoted to the "Wet Navy" introduced in The Art of Halo 3 and proven canon with the release of Longshore. Metalingus627 09:26, October 12, 2009 (UTC)

I agree though it should be added to the page. --Sgt.T.N.Biscuits 23:27, November 10, 2009 (UTC)

Nine months and not even a mention... I'll start working on it tomorrow if I have the chance.-- Forerunner 22:48, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Sea combat

So I guess they don't take the battles to the sea? PX173 13:20, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

Look at the post above you. --Sgt.T.N.Biscuits 14:42, November 6, 2009 (UTC)

I never really new what "wet navy" meant. PX173 10:04, November 7, 2009 (UTC)

A seaborn Navy much like the current day ones. --Sgt.T.N.Biscuits 23:26, November 10, 2009 (UTC)

Reach Station Gamma

Reach Station Gamma- I dont see this station in the current list, its from The fall of Reach- a dry dock orbital facility containing a UNSC Corvette with intact navigational data.DARKSTORM99 23:33, August 30, 2010 (UTC)

Add it to the "mobile stations" section Darb 013 00:59, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
I don't recall there being a corvette. I do know, however, that it was holding a few ONI ships at the time of the attack (take note that they may not have been prowlers, as Cortana claims that ONI intended their vessels to appear more civilian-like; a yaught, perhaps.)

Rename?

In a recent Waypoint video, the navy is referred to as the "UNSC Naval Service". Is this an alternative name or should we consider renaming?-- Forerunner 22:08, 13 February 2011 (EST)

In America, the "United States Naval Service" refers to the Navy, Marine Corps, and (during wartime) the Coast Guard. It's obvious that this tradition has stayed in service for the UNSC Defense Force. User:CommanderTony/Sig

List of ships

I reckon we should move the list of ships and stations in this article to a new page; "List of UNSC ships". Thoughts?--The All-knowing Sith'ari 13:59, 2 November 2011 (EDT)

I agree, the number of known ships and stations is only going to increase. File:Colonel Grade One.pngCol. Snipes450File:Colonel Grade One.png 14:15, 2 November 2011 (EDT)

I suggest redirect it to a category (titled "Category:UNSC ships") and simply add the category in every UNSC ship article. With that, we don't need to manually add ships to the hub article.— subtank 15:29, 2 November 2011 (EDT)
I don't know. Categorising would take some time.--The All-knowing Sith'ari 16:00, 2 November 2011 (EDT)
It's better than manually adding to the List article. Also, a category will list the article alphabetically... assuming that editors have specified the pagename in the category field.— subtank 16:04, 2 November 2011 (EDT)
Suppose we'd better start now, then...--The All-knowing Sith'ari 16:10, 2 November 2011 (EDT)

Existence of a "wet" Navy

Can't the Covenant just fire a plasma torpedo at the aircraft carriers and make them a on-fire waste of credits? —This unsigned comment was made by 65.71.124.226 (talkcontribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~

Likely they were from before the war for use against the Insurrection. Karl-591 (talk) 13:49, 7 January 2013 (EST)
