Eventually, [[SPARTAN-117]], along with several survivors of [[Battle of Installation 04]] and Battle of Reach, used the ''Gettysburg'', fusing it with the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] ship ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'', thus becoming the first [[Human]]-Covenant hybrid vessel in history <ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', page 208</ref>.
