- "So then the Covenant fleet really starts to tear into the orbital defenses. It's getting ugly up there. Major skirmishes with the Second, Seventh, and Sixteenth Fleets."
- — Sergeant Laura "Smokes" Tanner while piloting Blue Team to the Centennial Orbital Elevator.[1]
The Seventh Fleet was a fleet in the UNSC Navy. Serving in the front lines of the Human-Covenant War in late 2552, the fleet was recalled to defend Earth after the Covenant invasion.[2] On November 3, 2552 it was engaged in major skirmishes with Covenant fleet units in Earth orbit in conjunction with the Second and Sixteenth Fleets.[1]

Trivia
- The emblem of the Seventh Fleet was originally seen on the prows of the Forward Unto Dawn and the Aegis Fate in Halo 3. However, the meaning of this symbol was not officially specified until Stephen Loftus associated it with the Seventh Fleet in the entry for the Forward Unto Dawn in Halo: The Essential Visual Guide.[4]
- A variation of the Seventh Fleet symbol, with one additional chevron, is emblazoned on the back of the Mark VI armor variant in Halo 4.[5] The emblem is also shown in an early concept for the UNSC Infinity.
