Battle of Meridian
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Battle The Battle of Meridian was a conflict between UNSC and Covenant forces on the planet Meridian.[1] The first prototype for the HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark IX "Mantis" ADS engaged in an action known as the "Cherbourg Run", in which it successfully engaged 18 heavily guarded Type-27 Anti Aircraft Cannons, also known as "Mantis". The success of the prototype in the "Cherbourg Run" is one of the theories of why the walker was eventually called "Mantis". However, the Covenant succeeded in glassing the planet.[2]
