|unit_name=Battlegroup Dakota

'''Battlegroup Dakota''' was a formation of the [[UNSC Navy]]'s [[Home Fleet]]. In the summer of [[2557]], it took part in the [[New Phoenix Incident]]. <ref>'''[[Halo 4]]''', campaign level ''[[Midnight]]''</ref>

In the summer of [[2557]], the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]'s ship, ''[[Mantle's Approach]]'', exited slipspace near [[Earth]] intending to wipe Earth's population out with the [[Composer]]. However, the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} had arrived at Earth to warn UNSC forces of the attack. Soon after ''Mantle's Approach'' exited slipspace Battlegroup Dakota was ordered to engage the ship. The battlegroup was unable to seriously damage the ship, but after learning that the [[John-117|Master Chief]] was trying to board the ship in an [[F-41 Broadsword]] armed with a [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]], they aided him in entering the ship, with ''Infinity'' blasting a hole into the Composer once the Chief took down ''Mantle's Approach's'' point-defense guns.
