The Hillsborough-class destroyer was a class of destroyer in service with the UNSC Navy and the Colonial Military Administration.[1]
Operational history
Some Hillsborough-class destroyers were operated by the Colonial Military Administration. On October 7, 2525, a Hillsborough-class destroyer of Battlegroup 4, Template:CMA ship, was dispatched to the Epsilon Indi system to investigate the loss of communications with the planet Harvest, alongside Arabia and the Vostok. Upon exiting slipstream space in the system, the three ships were attacked by a Covenant vessel. Only the Heracles survived, albeit heavily damaged, by limping back to Reach.[2] Heracles later participated in the Second Battle of Harvest on March 1, 2526.[3]
