The 11-B1 was considered obsolete prior to the Human-Covenant War, due to the relative stability within the UNSC. They were seen as unnecessary because of the resulting large-scale destruction, damaged ecosystem, nuclear fallout and radiation that follows the detonation of a 11-B1. However, during the war, 11-B1s were used as a last-resort weapon against [[Covenant]] forces that evaded planetary [[MAC]] [[Orbital defense platform|defense weaponry]]. | The 11-B1 was considered obsolete prior to the Human-Covenant War, due to the relative stability within the UNSC.
