During [[Operation: UPPER CUT]] on [[2552#August|August 14, 2552]], ''Ardent Prayer'' was boarded by [[SPARTAN-B312]], [[Jorge-052]], and several [[YSS-1000 Sabre]] pilots in an effort to plant a [[Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine]] on board, which would be used to destroy a nearby {{Class|CSO|supercarrier}}, ''[[Long Night of Solace]]'' - the fleet's flagship. During the mission, the ship was engaged by the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[Paris-class heavy frigate|frigate]] ''[[UNSC Savannah|Savannah]]''. ''Savannah'' jammed ''Ardent Prayer''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s communications, while the Sabres damaged the corvette's engines and destroyed its [[Type-31 Exoatmospheric Multi-role Fighter|Seraph]] escort so its crew could not call for help.<ref name="LNoS"/>

''Ardent Prayer'' destroyed ''Savannah'', but not before a boarding party had landed on the corvette. The UNSC team eliminated the bridge crew, including its Shipmaster, Ardo 'Moretumee, and set the ship on a refueling track with ''Long Night of Solace''. The operation succeeded, and ''Ardent Prayer'', along with the supercarrier, was destroyed by the rigged slipspace drive.<ref name="LNoS"/><ref name="vis"/>
