'''PRO-49776'''<ref name="FOR">'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''' (2010), ''Adjunct''</ref> was the [[hull classification symbol]] of a [[prowler]] in service with the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] during the [[Human-Covenant War]]. It was captained by [[Lucius R. Jiron]].<ref name="Package">''[[Halo Legends]], [[The Package (animated short)|The Package]]''</ref>

==Operational history==
{{Main|Operation: WARM BLANKET}}
Shortly following the [[Battle of Miridem]] in [[2544]],{{Ref/Reuse|FOR}} the ship was sent by the ONI to retrieve Doctor [[Catherine Halsey]] from a [[Covenant]] [[Third Fleet of Glorious Consequence|fleet]] trapped in a stellar magnetic field that prevented them from jumping into [[Slipstream space|slipspace]]. Onboard, there were five [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan-IIs]] who were eventually sent out to retrieve it using [[Open Frame 92/Extra-Vehicular Activity|OF92-EVA Booster Frames]] stored onboard the stealth ship. After the Spartans successfully retrieved the package and the [[Covenant fleet]] jumped away, the stealth ship de-cloaked and destroyed the remaining [[Type-31 Seraph|Seraph fighters]]. After picking the Spartans up, the ship re-cloaked.{{Ref/Reuse|Package}}

==Production notes==
In a Q&A for ''[[Halo Legends]]'' in [[2009]], [[Frank O'Connor]] stated that the ship is not a prowler when questioned about its sophisticated mode of stealth compared to typical UNSC prowlers.<ref>[http://carnage.bungie.org/haloforum/halo.forum.pl?read=955272 '''Halo.Bungie.org''': ''Re: The Package: "It's not a Prowler..."'']</ref> This claim has seemingly been ignored in later fiction; not only was the ship's hull classification symbol established to be "PRO-49776" in the Adjunct content of the 2010 release of ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', with "PRO" being suggestive of "Prowler", but the [[Sahara-class heavy prowler|''Sahara''-class prowler]]s such as the {{UNSCShip|Aladdin}} in ''[[Spartan Ops]]'' were depicted as identical to the PRO-49776 in terms of design. Furthermore, ''[[Halo Mythos]]'' revealed the  hull classification symbol of another heavy prowler, {{UNSCShip|Port Stanley}}, as "PRO-46328", which uses the same format as "PRO-49776", leaving little doubt as to the nature of the vessel.
