Previous:

Operation: ABLE SENTRY[1]

Operation: PHALANX

Conflict:

Human-Covenant War[1]

Date:

Between 2531 and 2552[1]

Location:

Circinius IV, Circinius system[1]

Outcome:

Civilians evacuated from Circinius IV[1]

 

Operation: PHALANX was an operation of the United Nations Space Command on Circinius IV during the Human-Covenant War at some point between 2531 and 2552. The operation saw the evacuation of civilians and observation of Covenant invasion patterns on the planet, utilizing intelligence gained from Operation: ABLE SENTRY's UNSC Marine force reconnaissance units. At least one Spartan-II—John-117—participated in the operation.[1]

Trivia

In Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn, John-117 tells the survivors of Hastati Squad that they are the only survivors on the planet.[2] As the film is set in 2526, the presence of survivors years later ostensibly creates a contradiction. However, it can be assumed that Blue Team was operating on limited information at the time, or that the other survivors were only discovered later.
