The '''Type-58 Light Anti-Armor Weapon''' ('''T-58 LAAW'''), also known as the '''fuel rod cannon''', is a shoulder-fired mortar used by [[Covenant remnants]], created as the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|post-Covenant War]] successor to the [[Type-33 fuel rod gun]].<ref name="LAL">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-locke-load '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Canon Fodder - Locke & Load'']</ref>

== Design details ==
Created by multi-species workshops on [[Venezia]], the T-58 fuel rod cannon is cheaper, more accurate, and more reliable than the older [[Type-33 fuel rod gun]]. The T-58 launcher uses a compact and refined class of fuel rod ammunition that is far safer to manufacture, store, and field.<ref name="H5G"/><ref name="LAL"/>

== Variants ==
* '''Light of Urs''': During the [[Blooding Years]], many advances were made in fuel rod technology, with the ''Light of Urs'' being one of those advances. It is an improved fuel rod cannon that features an 80% higher rate of fire and faster-moving fuel rods with a 72% larger blast radius at the expense of slightly reduced damage, contrary to its in-game description mentioning higher damage.<ref name="analysis"/> It can also lock onto ground and air vehicles.<ref name="H5G"/> This particular weapon also appears as the first [[special weapons|hidden weapon]] in the mission [[Genesis (level)|Genesis]].<ref name="Genesis">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9fcN1StZpk '''YouTube''' - ''Halo 5 Secret Weapons Location Light of Urs/The Answer'']</ref>
* '''Pool of Radiance''': Both the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] and [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] use once-forbidden, unstable weapons. The ''Pool of Radiance'', one of these weapons, is an advanced fuel rod cannon with a 40% slower rate of fire compared to standard fuel rod cannons but its projectiles are deadlier as they leave dangerous residue upon impact and feature a proximity airbust fuse and a 42% larger blast radius.<ref name="H5G"/> It can also be found as the second hidden weapon in the campaign mission [[Reunion]].<ref name="Reunion">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJBnznAbPa4 '''YouTube''' - ''Halo 5 Secret Weapon, Where to find Pool of Radiance'']</ref>

== Gameplay ==
=== Changes from Type-33 fuel rod gun in ''Halo 2: Anniversary'' ===
* Extensive structural changes; reload now involves a speed-loader style cylinder of ammunition rather than a vertically loaded rack.
* Structure is much more sleek in design.
* The ammo is now loaded from the back rather than from the top. The ammo mag is also changed from a single line to a circular line.
* Weapon now can be charged, similar to a Mgalekgolo's assault weapon.
* Projectiles now have a longer range before being affected by gravity, after which they explode instantly.
* Weapon trajectory travels slightly faster than its predecessor.
