A Task Force is a flexible and small naval formation, typically consisting between four to twelve vessels.

Typically, during the Human-Covenant War, the prototypical UNSC task force was between three to six destroyers and frigates, a highly mobile and flexible attack force that was employed for high-priority patrols or small strike missions. However, these smaller task forces were incapable of prolonged patrol without resupply. Regardless of their lack of sustainability, these small task forces became a staple of UNSC naval doctrine; a small but powerful collection of ships capable of independent deployment into combat situations.
