The main target for the UNSC counter attack was to take out the [[Covenant Spire|Covenant Spires]] located along the valley ridge. It is important to note that the UNSC did not know what the main purpose of the spires were upon attacking. Noble Team led the attack on [[Spire One]], deactivating the EMP shield. This allowed the UNSC air support to destroy Spire One.<ref name="tip"/>
