In the UNSC, ships can also be operated by different departments and branches. Warships like the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} were often operated by the [[UNSC Navy]].<ref name="warfleetpg3637">''[[Halo: Warfleet – An Illustrated Guide to the Spacecraft of Halo]]'', p. 36 & 37</ref> UNSC Navy ships were deployed by [[UNSC Fleet Command]].<ref name="encycpg64">''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]'', p. 64 (2011)</ref> In the case of the {{UNSCShip|Swift Justice}}, it was operated by the [[Incident Response and Investigation]] division of the UNSC.{{Ref/Novel|Novel=Halo: Retribution|Chapter=2}} The [[UNSC Department of Commercial Shipping]] also operated a number of [[Freighter]]s.

Several procedures affected the operations of UNSC ships as well. Prior to crash landings, active [[Cryo chamber|cryo pods]] were to be ejected into space.<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', p. 185 (2010 edition)</ref> The [[Cole Protocol]] also affected the possible destinations of ships.

Navy personnel UNSC ships often follow old naval tradition. Boarding a UNSC warship is considered a ceremony, not a formality. When boarding a ship, the boarder requests permission from the officer on deck. The officer on deck will reply with a curt "Very well".<ref name="osfmwelcomeaboard">''Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual'', PART 1: INTRODUCTIONS, Welcome Aboard the UNSC ''Infinity''!

"Dead fleets" or "paper fleets" are maintained as tradition and to honor those who died while serving. Inadvertently, some starships will be attached to these fleets by bureaucratic error. Many crewmen regarded this as a bad omen.{{Ref/Reuse|corerulebook}}

UNSC ships have an internal deck naming structure. On most ships, the Hangar deck is considered Zero Deck. Decks below that are "belowdeck" and are numbered in descending order starting at First Deck. Everything above the hangar deck is a "level", starting at Level One and going in an ascending order.{{Ref/Novel|Novel=Halo: Silent Storm|Chapter=4}}

By the [[2552|final year]] of the war, a majority of the UNSC's ground forces had been consolidated at Reach and at Earth. For many colonies, it was only the ships of the navy that were reminders of the UNSC and gave aid to those cut-off. Though in many instances, the Navy couldn't afford the loss of ships and personnel, often leaving these colonies to their own devices including destruction by the Covenant. No appreciable differences could be seen in expeditionary and defensive fleets as the UNSC lost the ability to conduct offensive naval operations. Navy AIs by this point were still assigning ships to squadrons, though at that point they were administrative groupings that had lost meaning over the course of the war. As well, numerous fleets only existed on [[Dead fleet|paper]], having been destroyed in lost sectors years prior.<ref name="corerulebook">''[[Halo: Fleet Battles]]'', Core Rulebook - p. 9</ref>

Several types of support ships that were used include the stealthy [[UNSC prowler|Prowler]] and its subtypes. Other stealth ship classes existed including the {{Class|Chiroptera|subprowler}}. There was also the incredibly small [[sloop]]. Another type of ship that was used by the UNSC was the {{Class|Calypso|exfiltration craft}}. Following the UNSC's take over of the CAA, the {{Class|Springhill|mining ship}} helped build materiel for UNSC forces.
