| Possible... although it's classified as Medium Fusion Destruction Device. With 63 Terajoule output... we'll see. I think I'll leave it in the capable hands of our administrators to decide though. --[[User:Honor Guard Reborn|<span style="color:Blue">DarkbelowHGR</span>]] [[User talk:Honor Guard Reborn|<span style="color:green">CommbandD</span>]] 14:48, August 26, 2010 (UTC) | | Possible... although it's classified as Medium Fusion Destruction Device.

| :Actually the 63 terajoule output is what made me discard that idea. A single megaton is over 4000 terajoules. --[[User talk:Zervziel|For the Swarm!]] 22:43, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

| ::The destructive ranges and size of the bomb in terms of megatons do not add up anyway >.< 1.2km is closer to 1KT. Not that it makes any difference..! [[User talk:Diaboy|Diaboy]] 15:00, 25 December 2010 (EST)

| The article says that the yield is 15 kilotons, but then says that the yield is one megaton. Which is the correct yield? [[User:Hyper Zergling|Hyper Zergling]] ([[User talk:Hyper Zergling|talk]]) 10:52, 24 October 2013 (EDT)

| :I know I'm a little late to the party, but it's possible the weapon has a variable yield. This is a technology that's existed since the 1960's. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_yield Especially since this is a tactical device, it would be practical to let the operator scale down the explosion depending on their mission. I'm speculating here, but I think the "63 Terajoules" was set by Kat or Thom specifically for this mission. Why such a low yield for this mission when the device can go up to nearly 1Mt? Again, I can only speculate. Perhaps they wanted to limit collateral damage to the colony below (they're delivering hope, after all). Alternatively maybe they wanted to ensure the Covenant ship's reactor would explode, and to do that they wanted to make sure they wouldn't vaporize the reactor.
