It consisted of a broad highway, and during the [[Battle of New Mombasa]], a [[Covenant]] [[Scarab]] was defending this grid sector, along with great numbers of other Covenant forces. A UNSC strike force of four [[Warthog]]s and three [[Pelican Dropship]]s were dispatched over Grid Kilo 23 to attack the [[Covenant]] [[Assault Carrier]] that was commanding the [[Covenant]] forces in the [[First Battle of Earth]] (where the Battle of [[New Mombasa]] had originated from). | It consisted of a broad highway, and during the [[Battle of New Mombasa]], a [[Covenant]] [[Scarab]] was defending this grid sector, along with great numbers of other [[Covenant]] forces.

[[Marine]] reconnaissance observing the grid sector noted the high [[Covenant]] troop concentrations, but failed to see a nearby [[Scarab]] battle walker, which was behind a building. As the three Pelicans neared the Scarab, unaware of its presence, the Scarab shot two of them down with its plasma weapons. | [[Marine]] reconnaissance observing the grid sector noted the high [[Covenant]] troop concentrations, but failed to see a nearby [[Scarab]] battle walker, which was behind a building.

There were several survivors at each crash site, though in both cases the pilots perished in the crash. One of them consisted of [[SPARTAN-117]], [[Sergeant]] [[Avery J. Johnson]], and three anonymous [[Marine]]s, two with [[Battle Rifle]]s and one with an [[SMG]]. The second was carrying a squad of [[ODST]]s and crashed landed in a beach behind [[Hotel Zanzibar]]. The last one escaped the Scarab without being hit, it later picked up Johnson. | There were several survivors at each crash site, though in both cases the pilots perished in the crash.
