Iliad was a frigate used by the Insurrectionists in the Eridanus System. In 2513, when the UNSC Navy arrived in the system to crush the rebel forces, Iliad, under the command of Colonel Robert Watts, led the Insurrectionist fleet against them in the battle over Eridanus II.[1]
During the battle, Iliad provided cover for another rebel vessel, the Gateway, which was having problems with its Slipspace drive. Iliad fired towing cables to a UNSC cruiser and then accelerated, tearing the ship in half. Iliad then dragged the other half into another cruiser, destroying it as well. Soon after, Gateway and Iliad jumped into Slipspace and rendezvoused with the rest of the rebel fleet at pre-designated coordinates.[1]
