As a disadvantage, the player will be exposed to enemy fire. While it is useful against enemies in light vehicles, this is not a weapon of choice when facing an enemy armored vehicle. Also, as is the case with the M41, players are unprotected from the rear. Additionally, the ''[[Halo 3]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s version of the Shade has an extremely slow turning rate, making it a detriment to the user. The Shade's rate-of-fire is also slower than that of the M41. | As a disadvantage, the player will be exposed to enemy fire.

=== | ===Heavy Shade=== | ||
Armed with twin [[heavy plasma cannon]]s with explosive bolts, the anti-air Shade is used to repel enemy aircraft. As with the fuel rod Shade, its chassis appears to be based on the T-26 ASG. However, the anti-air shade possesses an energy shield to protect the operator. The anti-air Shade appears in ''Halo: Reach'', on the levels and New Alexandria. | Armed with twin [[heavy plasma cannon]]s with explosive bolts, the anti-air Shade is used to repel enemy aircraft.
