The UNSC Aegis Fate (FFG-307) is a Charon-class light frigate in the UNSC Navy.[1]

Operational history

Fall of Reach

Main article: Fall of Reach

The UNSC Aegis Fate was present during the Covenant's invasion of Reach in the summer of 2552. It was assigned to bring fire support for a group of Marines fighting on the ground and offered as a support element for Dragon X-ray, though the operator refused, fearing that its firepower could cause collateral damage.[3]

Post-Reach

Main article: Sandtrap

After escaping Reach, the Aegis Fate was deployed to an abandoned Jiralhanae excavation site on Installation 00.[4][note 1] It deployed at least one Albatross to the surface, though it crashed for reasons unknown.[1]

Production notes

Prior to Halo 3's release, the Aegis Fate was thought to be a UNSC battlecruiser, as descriptions found in the Halo 3 Beta described it as such.[5]

In the Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta, the radio conversation mentioning Aegis Fate was on Overlook[6] before being moved to Courtyard in the retail release.

In the now-cancelled game Halo Online, the Aegis Fate was seen hovering high above the multiplayer map Reactor.

Trivia

  • The Aegis Fate is prominently featured in the northeastern[7] patch of unclouded sky on the Halo 3 multiplayer map Sandtrap.
  • Aegis was name of the goddess Athena's armor in Greek mythology. It was originally Zeus', which he made from the hide of a goat who raised him.
