The UNSC Devil You Know was a Marathon-class heavy cruiser in service of the UNSC Navy during the Human-Covenant War, in which it fought in several battles against Covenant forces such as the Battle of Horus.
== History ==
When the human colony world of Horus was discovered in 2544 by Sangheili fleetmaster Von 'Redonas, aboard a Covenant Syfon-pattern assault carrier, Ancestor's Judgement, flagship of the Fleet of Sworn Allegiance, which immediately proceeded to attack the colony, the UNSC forces present in orbit mounted a desperate defense against the incoming warship and its compliment. The lone vessel in orbit, the UNSC Devil You Know, attempted to hold off the assault ship and contended with the carrier's Banshees. The defense was pitiful and the engagement in orbit lasted a total of three minutes before the Devil You Know was crippled and forced to retreat. The Ancestor's Judgement quickly descended into the atmosphere unopposed and glassed the colony on Horus.
Though the Devil you Know survived, it was extremely crippled and forced to return to Earth for repairs.
