The UNSC Paris is a Paris-class heavy frigate in the UNSC Navy and the first ship of the Paris-class to be built.[2][note 1]

Operational history

In October 2552, it was stationed at Earth with the Home Fleet during the Battle of Earth. The Paris descended near New Mombasa to aid UNSC forces in the battle taking place there. It was one of four ships fast enough and close enough to follow the UNSC In Amber Clad and the Prophet of Regret's assault carrier into slipspace.[3] The Paris, as well as the Template:UNSCship and the Template:UNSCship, was faster than the Template:UNSCship and sped out of the prowler's sensor range while in slipspace.[4] The fates of the Paris, the Redoubtable, and the Coral Sea are unknown.

Notes

  1. ^ The UNSC Paris is never mentioned by name in the Visual Guide; however, given the fact the ship was a frigate and in active service by 2552, it seems likely that the Paris-class was named after this particular ship.
