The '''XEV9-Matos Nonlinear Pulse Cannon''' is a [[UNSC Navy|Naval]] [[laser]] weapon in service to the [[UNSC Defense Force]].<ref name="VIS">'''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]'''</ref> | |||
The XEV9 | |||
== | ==Background== | ||
The XEV9 is an armament on [[Sahara-class heavy prowler|''Sahara''-class heavy prowlers]] like the {{UNSCShip|Aladdin}}. Pulse laser weaponry has been mounted on [[UNSC prowler]]s as early as [[2531]], when the {{UNSCShip|Circumference}} used a pulse laser burst to disable a [[communications satellite]] near [[Construction Platform 966A]].<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 50''</ref> This is likely an independent UNSC development rather than reverse engineering of Covenant technology, as early versions of pulse laser technology were available to [[human]]ity as early as 1960, and in weaponized form by the early 21st century. | |||
