-A '''fougass''' is a barrel that is buried in the ground. It has [[Grenades]] in the bottom of it and can be filled with Napalm ("Fire" Fougasses) or spent shell casings ("Shrapnel" Fougasses). They can be remote detonated, sending fire and shrapnel upwards, above the ground. Normally they are used to destroy ground targets, but the [[Master Chief]] and his team of [[Spartans]] used ten fougasses to destroy five [[Covenant]] [[Banshee]] fliers during an engagement on [[Jericho VII]].

+==Usage==
+===Battle of Jericho VII===
+On February 12, [[2535]] the [[John-117|Master Chief]] and [[Blue Team|his team]] of [[SPARTAN Program|Spartans]] used ten fougasses to destroy five [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshee]] fliers during an [[Battle of Jericho VII|engagement]] on [[Jericho VII]]. He activated it when the fliers were still close to the ground on a strafing run so the blast hit them perfectly.{{Ref/Reuse|HTFORP}}
