The UNSC Spirit of Fire (Hull Classification Symbol CFV-88) is a modified UNSC Phoenix-class Colony Ship built around 2473 and is more than 100 years old. Its Ship Emblem reads "Exitus Acta Probat," Latin for "The result justifies the deed" or "The ends justifies the means." Over fifty years after being built, it was refitted for military service prior to the period of history known as the Human-Covenant War. The AI on board the Spirit of Fire is known as Serina. She was commanded by an officer known only as Cutter.

The Spirit of Fire was originally a colony ship, transporting equipment and colonists in the UNSC's expansion efforts. In 2520 the ship was refit with a Magnetic Accelerator Cannon and other armaments to serve as a warship. Huge storage bays that used to house machine parts now carry everything from Warthogs and Scorpion Tanks to construction supplies for fire bases in hot spots in front line engagements or in rearguard actions.

The campaign of Halo Wars follows the Spirit of Fire and her crew as the UNSC deals with its first deadly encounters with the Covenant.
