CC-U624 was a CCS-class battlecruiser from the Fleet of Glorious Interdiction that is known only by its UNSC designation.

History

It, along with another battlecruiser, labeled CCS-U321, exited slipspace near Arcadia on February 9, 2531. They were immediately engaged by four UNSC ships. During the battle, U624 destroyed two UNSC vessels, the Texas and the Belfast, and severely damaged the Armstrong and the Pillar of Autumn. However, CCS-U321 was caught with its shields still down and was destroyed. After the space battle, U624 moved planet-side and started deploying ground forces, quickly overwhelming the UNSC troops there.[1]

Given that the UNSC were successful in repelling the assault, it is highly probable that U624 retreated or was destroyed in its attempt to escape the planet.

Trivia

CCS-U624's designation, as well as that of CCS-U321, resembles those of German U-boats during World War II.
