Glorious Advance is a Phantom dropship used by the Covenant. [1]

In 2552, it was attached to the Flagship of the Fleet of Particular Justice, the Seeker of Truth. When the Infinite Succor was attacked, a team of Special Operations Elites, led by Rtas 'Vadumee, was dispatched to secure the ship. It was later radioed by 'Vadumee and picked him up just before the Infinite Succor was destroyed.

Trivia

  • This is one of the two known cases where the Covenant have named individual dropships, although they are all probably named, just unbeknown to players and the UNSC.
