Battle group
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
A Battle Group is a UNSC designation for a force of ships that is smaller than a Fleet. A Battle Group is roughly equivalent to a Covenant Task Force in terms of number of ships, however, Covenant ships are far superior to the UNSC's own.
A Battle Group is usually commanded by an Admiral, and each Battle group is assigned a number[1]. When the number is not known, the Battle Group is referred to simply by its flagship. Battle Groups are also created on a temporary basis, with a specific mission or to accomplish a specific task[2].
