The '''UNSC ''Plateau''''' was a [[United Nations Space Command]] [[UNSC | The '''UNSC ''Plateau''''' was a [[United Nations Space Command]] [[UNSC frigate|frigate]] that was tasked with guarding the city of [[Sydney]] on [[Earth]] by remaining stationed in the lower atmosphere near it.<ref name="rossbach's world">'''[[Halo: Fractures]]''', "[[Rossbach's World (story)|Rossbach's World]]", ''page ???''</ref> On [[2558#October|October 28, 2558]], a [[Guardian]] [[Subjugation of Earth|arrived]] over the city. The ''Plateau'' engaged the massive construct by firing a pair of shots from its two [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon|magnetic accelerator cannons]]. The shots were ineffective, and the Guardian subsequently unleashed an [[electromagnetic pulse]] on the city, which caused the ''Plateau'' to begin to list to one side and then drop from the sky. [[Admiral]] [[Serin Osman]] witnessed this right before jumping to [[slipstream space]], and she surmised that if the ship's [[Fusion drive|engine core]] detonated on impact with the ground below, then Sydney would be nothing but a crater and millions would be dead.{{Ref/Reuse|rossbach's world}} | ||
==List of | Ultimately, the ''Plateau'' was destroyed upon impact with the surface; Despite this, its engine core survived intact, sparing Sydney from annihilation. However, this proved inconsequential as Cortana soon after dispatched a Guardian to completely destroy the remains of the city. | ||
