UNSC ''Valiant'' was drafted by the [[UNSC Navy]] as a compromise between a [[battleship]] and a [[Cruiser|heavy cruiser]]. ''Valiant'' was commissioned and released from her [[Mars|Martian]] shipyard docking clamps in [[2493]], after undergoing years of feasibility studies and redesigns. ''Valiant'' showed promise during her initial [[UNSC Testing and Evaluation Command|testing and evaluation]], though the high costs and delays in incorporating next-generation fusion drives seemingly doomed the ''Valiant'' class. | UNSC ''Valiant'' was drafted by the [[UNSC Navy]] as a compromise between a [[battleship]] and a [[Cruiser|heavy cruiser]].

Less than two years after her commissioning, ''Valiant'' and the fellow ships of her class were relegated from the UNSC Navy rolls and partially scrapped. However, in [[2497]], the [[United Nations Space Command]] discovered that [[insurrectionist]] sympathizers had infiltrated the [[Colonial Military Administration]], which led to a massive expansion of the UNSC as it absorbed and dismantled the CMA, and assumed their role fighting the [[Insurrection]]. With most command ships now engaged in lengthy counterinsurgency [[operation]]s, ''Valiant'' and other members of the class were soon recommissioned as command-and-control [[flagship]]s, with the tonnage and firepower of the class successfully augmenting [[battle group]]s of smaller [[warship]]s. ''Valiant'' and a handful of other super-heavy cruisers, including {{UNSCShip|Everest}}, were outfitted with a complete suite of command upgrades to aid the UNSC in the Insurrection. | Less than two years after her commissioning, ''Valiant'' and the fellow ships of her class were relegated from the UNSC Navy rolls and partially scrapped.
