The '''light plasma mortar''' is the only weapon of the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant's]] [[Revenant (vehicle)|Revenant]] infantry support vehicle. It is essentially a downscaled version of the [[plasma mortar]] mounted on the Covenant [[Type-25 Assault Gun Carriage|Wraith]]. When charging, the weapon's projectile possesses a bluish tinge, though it is red when fired. It can fire one round every two to three seconds. The weapon has a less pronounced parabolic arc than its larger cousin.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_080610 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update 08.06.10'']</ref>
