"FOB Delta cleanup complete. Now to claim it. Get me to the terminal."

FOB Delta.

FOB Delta is a UNSC Forward Operating Base (FOB) on the fragment sections of Installation 07 during the Battle for Zeta Halo.

Operational history

Following the Banished's ambush on the UNSC Infinity upon its arrival at Installation 07 on December 12, 2559, UNSC forces made landfall on the ring. While many survivors at the fragmented section of the ring gathered at the wreckage of the Mulsanne-class light frigate UNSC Mortal Reverie as a base of operations, they also established Forward Operating Bases in nearby locations. FOB Delta was located east of the Conservatory, and northeast of a Reformation Spire's base.

By March 3, 2560, FOB Delta was in Banished control, with the Banished adding their own equipment and troops around the FOB. The FOB was also connected to the Banished battle network protocol, tracking nearby UNSC and Banished activity. At some point after Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 was retrieved by Fernando Esparza onboard Echo 216 on May 28, the Spartan eliminated the Banished forces at the FOB and deployed his artificial intelligence known as the Weapon at the FOB's terminal. The Weapon removed the FOB from the Banished network, returning it to UNSC control, and marked the nearby locations of interest on John-117's TACMAP.

Gameplay

"Got it! All Banished controls are cleared — this FOB is ours. If you're looking for a good vantage point, you could do worse than the peak to the north. It's one of the highest on the Ring. Just be careful on your way up."
