Omega Three was the final panic code, an order to break and run no matter what the cost. This code was used only in extreme situations, when a combat situation suddenly turned extremely grim for the [[UNSC]] forces and they would be massacred if they did not immediately retreat.<ref>[[Ghosts of Onyx]] page 22</ref>

It was used in [[Operation TORPEDO]] in 2545 when seven [[Covenant]] cruisers arrived on [[Pegasi Delta]] to halt the [[Spartan-III]]'s attack. Except [[Tom]] and [[Lucy]], who managed to jump into the water before they were hit, all of the [[Spartan-III]]'s were killed by ~~an Electro-Magnetic pulse~~.

Lances of laser fire rained down from the ships' lateral weapon arrays and blasted his fellow Spartans. Firepower meant for capital ship combat… how could anyone survive that?''
