During the final hours of the [[Battle of Installation 04]], the Covenant deployed a Type-47B Scarab to combat swarming Flood forces in the arid badlands around the downed {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}. During the battle, remaining UNSC personnel on the ringworld launched an assault on the Covenant forces, with the objective of drawing them away from the ''Autumn'' while [[SPARTAN-II program|SPARTAN]] [[John-117]] boarded the cruiser. However when the Chief's commandeered [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshee]] approached the ship, the Scarab soon took notice and moved to ambush the Spartan. [[Fireteam Raven]] was quick to act, boarding a [[UH-144 Falcon|Falcon]] and proceeding to pursue the walker. Despite its best efforts, the team of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODSTs]] was able to successfully board the Scarab, wiping out its entire complement of soldiers and destroying the core.<ref>'''[[Halo: Fireteam Raven]]''', level, ''[[Last Stand (Halo: Fireteam Raven level)|Last Stand]]''</ref>
