An '''Orbital Defense Platform''', or '''ODP''' was a class of large [[UNSC]] space station used to defend locations of great importance, typically planets. Stations were frequently placed in [[wikipedia:Geosynchronous orbit|geosynchronous orbits]] and deployed in groups, or clusters, of 2 to 5. The well-equipped and large bridge of an ODP was suitable for directing large-scale engagements. Such was the case when [[Lord Hood|Fleet Admiral Sir Terrence Hood]] directed UNSC forces from a ODP during the [[First Battle of Earth|First]] and [[Second Battle of Earth]]. An example of an ODP cruiser is the [[Cairo Station]].
