The '''fuel rod cannon''' is a [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] vehicle-mounted projectile weapon.<ref name="vis9"/> It is a larger and more powerful version of the [[Type-33 Light Anti-Armor Weapon|Type-33 LAAW]], with anti-vehicle and anti-air applications. It is employed by a variety of vehicles, including [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshees]], [[Type-52 Anti-Aircraft Artillery|Anti-Air Wraiths]] and a variant of the [[Type-26 Anti-Infantry Stationary Gun|T-26 Shade turret]].


==Design details==
The '''fuel rod cannon''', sometimes known as '''plasma flak cannon''',{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/blitz-coverage|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo Community Update - Blitz Coverage|D=28|M=10|Y=2021}} is a vehicle-mounted projectile weapon typically used by the [[Covenant]] and [[Covenant remnant|its remnants]] on a variety of their vehicles, notably including [[Wraith#Covenant AA Wraith|Skyhunter Wraiths]],{{Ref/Reuse|enc22p275}} [[Banshee]]s,{{Ref/Reuse|enc22p287}}{{Ref/Reuse|enc22p286}} and [[Seraph]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|enc22p288}} As its name suggests, the fuel rod cannon fires [[Fuel rod#Class-3|Class-3 fuel rods]], which have a greater range and a capability to track heat signatures when compared to their Class-2 counterparts, which are typically loaded in the infantry-portable [[fuel rod gun]].{{Ref/Reuse|evg9}}
The weapon fires [[fuel rod]]s, caseless projectiles which contain radioactive, highly explosive material encased in a transparent shell. The colloquialism "fuel rod", commonly used by the UNSC to refer to the weapon's ammunition, is technically incorrect;<ref name="vis77"/> it originates from the projectiles' resemblance to how nuclear fuel rods are commonly depicted in popular culture.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/projects/halo3/content.aspx?link=h3fuelrod '''Bungie.net''': ''Type-33 Light Anti-Armor Weapon'']</ref>


This weapon functions in a similar fashion to the man-portable Type-33 LAAW, but the fuel rods fired by the cannon are larger and more damaging. Most fuel rod weapons, including the T33 LAAW, fire ammunition designated as Class-2, which is effective against armor and infantry on short ranges. For anti-air combat, however, the Covenant employ a more effective type of fuel rod, designated as Class-3. Although visually identical to the Class-2 rounds, Class-3 fuel rods are more powerful, have a greater range, and are capable of tracking the heat signatures of vehicles.<ref name="vis9"/>
The [[United Nations Space Command]]'s [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] has typically [[Type classification system|type-classified]] the Banshee's fuel rod cannon under the designations of '''Heavy Anti-Armor Weapon/Mounted, Heavy Fuel Rod (Class-3)''' or '''Type-26 Heavy Anti-Armor Weapon/Mounted''' ('''T-26 HAAW/M''').{{Ref/Site|Id=hwbanshee|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/banshee|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Universe - Vehicles - Banshee|D=6|M=4|Y=2015}}{{Ref/Book|H4EVG|Page=119}}{{Ref/Book|H4EVG|Detail=Glossary}} Nicknames for the fuel rod cannon include '''Big Green Death''' and '''Green Death'''.{{Ref/Reuse|enc11p339}}


==Usage==
==Overview==
Banshees are equipped with a single fuel rod cannon for attacking hardened ground targets, while Anti-Air Wraiths are fitted with two pods of three. [[Type-26 Anti-Infantry Stationary Gun#Fuel rod Shade|Fuel rod Shades]] are equipped with a single fuel rod cannon. All of these variants fire Class-2 rounds, with Banshees being capable of also firing Class-3 projectiles.
===Design details===
Fuel rod cannons, though sharing many properties with the [[Mgalekgolo]]'s [[assault cannon]],{{Ref/Book|Id=enc22p298|Enc22|Page=298}} fire Class-3 fuel rod caseless projectiles, which contain radioactive, highly explosive material encased in a transparent shell.{{Ref/Book|Id=enc22p299|Enc22|Page=299}} The Class-3 fuel rods fired by the cannon are larger and more destructive than their Class-2 counterparts, which are intended for armor and infantry on short ranges. For long range or anti-air combat, however, the Class-3 fuel rods are more powerful, have a greater range, and are capable of tracking the heat signatures of vehicles.{{Ref/Reuse|evg9}} They are marginally weaker than a [[plasma mortar]], but travel at a higher velocity with a higher accuracy.{{Ref/Reuse|enc11p339}} Variants exist within the fuel rod cannon classification: for example, whereas the Banshee employs a forward-firing, semi-automatic single cannon, the {{Pattern|Ogab'd|anti-aircraft Wraith}} employs triple-rack rapid-fire fuel rod cannons that fire a barrage of fuel rods.{{Ref/Reuse|enc22p288}}{{Ref/Site|Id=hwwraith|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/wraith|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Universe - Vehicles - Wraith|D=29|M=10|Y=2020}}


The [[Mgalekgolo]]'s [[assault cannon]] uses similar technology, as it fires bolts of green incendiary fluid.

Banshees often use the weapon to wipe out groups of infantry, or to soften heavily armored targets before finishing them with its [[Class-2 Energy Gun|medium plasma cannons]]. The projectiles are especially lethal to light vehicles, such as a [[Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Ghost]] or [[M274 Ultra-Light All-Terrain Vehicle|Mongoose]], which will be sent flying by the explosion.

==Trivia==
==Production notes==
*In ''[[Halo 3]]'', on [[Heroic]] or [[Legendary]], if an [[Type-52 Anti-Aircraft Artillery|Anti-Air Wraith]] gets a direct hit on the player, it will kill him/her instantly. However, it is rather rare for an Anti-Air Wraith to attack ground targets.
*In ''[[Halo 2]]'', ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', ''[[Halo 4]]'', ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' multiplayer, and ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', [[fuel rod gun]]s are erroneously called fuel rod cannons. Similarly, the [[Phoenix Logs|Phoenix Log]] [[Phoenix Logs/Banished Units/Heavy Grunts|entry]] for [[Heavy|Heavy Grunt]] in ''Halo Wars 2'' also mistakes the {{Pattern|Korva|fuel rod gun}} for a fuel rod cannon. Furthermore, the [[Halo Waypoint]] article for the fuel rod gun incorrectly named the weapon as the fuel rod cannon,{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/weapons/fuel-rod-cannon|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Universe - Weapon - Fuel Rod Cannon|D=29|M=10|Y=2015}}, though the article on [[Wraith]]s correctly stated that the anti-air Wraith employs fuel rod cannons.{{Ref/Reuse|hwwraith}} The distinction between the two fuel rod weapons was deliberately established in ''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]'' and the ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition)]]''.
*In ''[[Halo 2]]'' and ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', T-33 LAAWs or Fuel Rod Guns are referred to as Fuel Rod Cannons.
*According to the [[Halo 3 manual|''Halo 3'' manual]], the Banshee fires Class-2 fuel rods, though this was later seemingly retconned by Halo Waypoint's article on Banshees.{{Ref/Reuse|hwbanshee}}
*In ''Halo 3'' and ''Halo 3: ODST'', in a similar case to the fuel rod gun, fuel rods fired from an NPC’s fuel rod cannon have an enhanced lock-on ability, which players are unable to access. However, in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' and ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', it is possible for the player to use this feature.
*The fuel rod cannon on Banshees have been nicknamed "Banshee bomb" by the developers and the community.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/season-1-outcomes-report|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Season 1 Outcomes Report <nowiki>|</nowiki> Halo Infinite|D=29|M=5|Y=2023}}

The fuel rod cannon, sometimes known as plasma flak cannon,[11] is a vehicle-mounted projectile weapon typically used by the Covenant and its remnants on a variety of their vehicles, notably including Skyhunter Wraiths,[7] Banshees,[1][8] and Seraphs.[2] As its name suggests, the fuel rod cannon fires Class-3 fuel rods, which have a greater range and a capability to track heat signatures when compared to their Class-2 counterparts, which are typically loaded in the infantry-portable fuel rod gun.[10]

The United Nations Space Command's Office of Naval Intelligence has typically type-classified the Banshee's fuel rod cannon under the designations of Heavy Anti-Armor Weapon/Mounted, Heavy Fuel Rod (Class-3) or Type-26 Heavy Anti-Armor Weapon/Mounted (T-26 HAAW/M).[12][13][14] Nicknames for the fuel rod cannon include Big Green Death and Green Death.[9]

Overview[edit]

Design details[edit]

Fuel rod cannons, though sharing many properties with the Mgalekgolo's assault cannon,[15] fire Class-3 fuel rod caseless projectiles, which contain radioactive, highly explosive material encased in a transparent shell.[16] The Class-3 fuel rods fired by the cannon are larger and more destructive than their Class-2 counterparts, which are intended for armor and infantry on short ranges. For long range or anti-air combat, however, the Class-3 fuel rods are more powerful, have a greater range, and are capable of tracking the heat signatures of vehicles.[10] They are marginally weaker than a plasma mortar, but travel at a higher velocity with a higher accuracy.[9] Variants exist within the fuel rod cannon classification: for example, whereas the Banshee employs a forward-firing, semi-automatic single cannon, the Ogab'd-pattern anti-aircraft Wraith employs triple-rack rapid-fire fuel rod cannons that fire a barrage of fuel rods.[2][17]
