| The '''XEV9-Matos nonlinear pulse cannon''' is a [[UNSC starship|starship]]-mounted [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] weapon in service with the [[United Nations Space Command]].{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=129}}{{Ref/Book|Id=VIS|H4EVG|Ships|Page=190}}

|
| ==Overview==
| | The '''XEV9-Matos Nonlinear Pulse Cannon''' is a pulse laser weapon in service to the [[UNSC Defense Force]].<ref name="VIS">'''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]'''</ref> |
| ===Design details===
| |
| The XEV9 fires an electromagnetic pulse that can be used to disable enemy [[warship]]s. The weapon is capable of firing multiple times in quick succession, and is mounted below the upper hull and wings of the ship, requiring the ship to turn "belly-up" relative to its target to fire the cannon.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HGL9|Gla|Chapter=9}} In rare circumstances, the XEV9 offers coverage on forward-facing targets.{{Ref/Book|HM|Kilo-Five|Page=140-141}} | |
|
| |
|
| ===Usage=== | | ==Background== |
| Two XEV9s are mounted on the underside of {{Class|Sahara|heavy prowler}}s like the {{UNSCShip|Aladdin}}.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}{{Ref/Reuse|VIS}} In [[2553]], {{UNSCShip|Port Stanley}} used its XEV9-Matos against the {{Class|Hudal|auxiliary vessel}} ''[[Piety]]'', firing multiple shots to keep the vessel unable to communicate while [[Kilo-Five]] [[Naval boarding|boarded]] the ship.{{Ref/Reuse|HGL9}}
| | The XEV9 was an armament on [[Sahara-class heavy prowler|''Sahara''-class heavy prowlers]] like the {{UNSCShip|Aladdin}}. |
