User:TheWakingDream/Battlegroup Israel

Battlegroup Israel was a UNSC Combat and Weapons Development Group. Consisting of 13 UNSC Paris-Class Frigates and 34 Armored Personnel Transports designed and constructed on New Israel. Commanded by Admiral Stanforth before the Human-Covenant war, Battlegroup Israel's purpose was to transport UNSC VIP's, and to ensure the survival of UEG Assets.

After the beginning of the Human-Covenant war, Israel was deployed on numerous fronts simultaneously, tasked with the extraction of Navy Commanding Officers and search and rescue efforts post-combat. Before the glassing of New Israel in 2552, the battlegroup's assets were used for testing new naval weaponry such as the GLASS Weaponized FAF Slipspace Drive, which inspired the (albeit limited) use of weaponized Slipspace Drives throughout the war effort.

Battlegroup Israel's gutted APT's were also used for the testing of a low-yield NOVA bomb which consisted of 3 SHIVA Warheads and thinner plating, and as such, indirectly contributed more Covenant casualties than most Battlegroups combined, including Battlegroup India.

Israel, like many other CAW-DG's contributed significantly to the Human-Covenant war, more than most actual naval engagements.
