Operational History
Fall of Reach
- Main article: Fall of Reach
Bravo 001 was flown by Flight Officer Mitchell. It was assigned to transport the Spartan IIs down to the surface of Reach during the Covenant attack and its aft section was stripped down to accommodate the twenty seven Spartans of Red Team. It was escorted by a group of Longswords led by Knife 26.
Bravo 001 came under attack by two formations of Seraph fighters. Its cockpit decompressed and then exploded resulting in its destruction, killing the pilot, Mitchell, but Joshua-029 managed to slow the ship enough for the Spartans to jump out of it, though with heavy casualties (four Spartans were killed in the initial jump, including Malcolm-059), before Bravo 001 crashed into a mountain on Reach and was destroyed.[2]
