Marcus Lehto: "I think it was the Strike Fighter, right? It was like a defensive fighter for the... the... uh..."
Robert McLees: "Earth Space."

When developing Halo 2, Bungie faced many delays for various technical reasons. As such many aspects of the story such as vehicles, gameplay/design, and story elements did not make it into the final version of Halo 2. Many of the elements have been confirmed by such things as videos and commentary on the Limited Edition special DVD.
The Strike Fighter bears a strong resemblance to the YSS-1000 Sabre in Halo: Reach. It therefore seems likely that the Strike Fighter was resurrected in Reach development and eventually became the Sabre.
