The plasma lance (highlighted) location on an ORS-class heavy cruiser.
A plasma lance aboard the Day of Jubilation firing upon a UNSC ship.
A plasma lance is a kind of energy projector employed by Covenant starships as an ultra-heavy anti-ship weapon. Plasma lances fire tightly-focused streams of plasma at their enemies, dealing a great deal of kinetic and thermal damage. At close range, plasma lances are capable of cutting un-shielded warships in half.[1]
