The UNSC Saratoga was a Paris-class heavy frigate in the UNSC Navy. It was assigned to the Epsilon Eridani Fleet.[1][10]

Service history[edit]

On August 12, 2552, during the Battle at Szurdok Ridge, the Saratoga, as well as the UNSC Grafton, provided air support for UNSC forces engaging the Covenant on the ground. Though Grafton was destroyed when a Sh'wada-pattern supercarrier, Long Night of Solace, emerged from cloak, Saratoga narrowly escaped.[10][1]
