Officially formed in the 23rd Age of Doubt, approximately 2491 by the Earth calendar, the Fleet was assigned as part of the Vanguard Fleet that patrolled and protected the Sangheili homeworld of Sanghelios. Before this assignment, it was named the Fleet of Divine Force, and was a Patrol Fleet that guarded the northern borders of the Covenant Empire. In the 9th Age of Reclamation, approximately the 2545, the Fleet came under the command of Supreme Commander Dtar 'Zealonf, who under the orders of the Hierarchs was permitted to take the fleet to campaign in the Human-Covenant War, which it did successfully, resulting in 9 victories in space combat, no retreats, and three glassed former human worlds (Including the former research world of Coral), before its return to Sanghelios in 2551. During the events of the Great Schism, patrol fleets and other parts of the Covenant Navy broke into civil war, with ships vying to destroy one another. After the Battle of High Charity, a Jiralhanaen Fleet lead by the Minor Prophet of Concourse, lead an attack on Sanghelios. During the battle, the Vanguard Fleet set about defending the planet, while the superior numbering Jiralhanaen ships thrust themselves ahead in several formations that ultimately failed. The battle was intercepted by a portion of the Fleet of Retribution, lead by Rtas 'Vadum, who assisted in the defeat and destruction of the majority of the Jiralhanaen invading forces, including the minor San 'Shyuum's flagship. After a relatively brief meeting of the Sangheilian High Council on the planet, during which a formal decision to ally with the human's was made, The Fleet of Decisive Judgment was permitted to travel to a glassed human planet, where Dtar 'Zealonf wished to find some Forerunner technology that might be of value to the Sangheili. Upon reaching the planet Coral, the Fleet was ordered to stay in formation in the planet's orbit, where it resided for several days. The Fleet lost contact with the Supreme Commander, who had gone down with the landing party, though after a few days contact was re-established when the landing party sent back reports of Flood infestation upon the planet. Through a daring maneuver by the landing party, and the efforts of the CCS-Battlecruiser Unscathed Soul, the majority of the landing party, including the Supreme Commander and his stowaway daughter; Yamn, along with a number of humans, were able to escape the planet. Among these humans were a number of civilian scientists and marines, and a Spartan-II, Andrew-076. Upon the completion of its mission to Coral, the Fleet entered Slipspace and returned to Sanghelios.
