A '''Fougass''' is an improvised weapon that generally take the appearance of a barrel or tube that is buried about a foot beneath the ground. It has [[Type-3 Antipersonnel/Antimatériel Incendiary Grenade|Grenades]] or some other form of propellant in the bottom of it and can be filled with Napalm ("Fire" Fougasses) or spent shell casings and various bits of metal ("Shrapnel" Fougasses). They can be remote detonated, sending fire and shrapnel upwards, cutting down anything above them for up to several meters. 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 [[Battle of Jericho VII|engagement]] on [[Jericho VII]].<ref>''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', page 5</ref> | A '''Fougass''' is an improvised weapon that generally take the appearance of a barrel or tube that is buried about a foot beneath the ground.

He activated it when the fliers were still close to the ground on a strafing run so the blast hit them perfectly.<ref>''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', page 5</ref> | ||
