The [[Covenant Bomb]] was a type of large tactical ordnance. They were the counterpart to the [[UNSC]]'s tactical [[Nuclear weapon]]s.

Bombs were used during the [[First Battle of Earth]] to assault [[Orbital Defense Platform]]s. Boarding parties delivered the ordnance and destroyed [[Athens Station]] and [[Malta Station]]. The device on [[Cairo Station]] was secured by [[John-117]] and [[Cortana]]. The [[SPARTAN-II|Spartan]] performed a micro-gravity maneuver to deliver the device to a Covenant [[Assault Carrier]]. The enemy warship was destroyed.<ref name="H2_CairoLevel">''[[Halo 2]]'', [[Cairo Station (Level)]]"</ref>

==Trivia==
*[[Jason Jones]] of [[Bungie]] referred to the bomb as the "Giant Covenant Space Pickle".
*When the bomb is reactivated by [[John-117]] it takes  [[7]] seconds to explode.
*It appears in [[Halo Zero]], a fan-made 2D Halo game made for the PC.
*When the bomb was deactivated it was possible it had 7 seconds to spare, another possible 7 reference.
