The '''X23 Non-Nuclear Electromagnetic Pulse Cannon (NNEMP)''' is an [[electromagnetic pulse]] weapon employed by the [[United Nations Space Command]].{{Ref/Reuse|HWLE}}{{Ref/Reuse|OSG}}
 
==Overview==
===Design details===
The X23 NNEMP consists of a turreted mount on top of the Gremlin vehicle. When fired, it emits a large [[electromagnetic pulse]] capable of knocking out vehicles and other electrical equipment.{{Ref/Reuse|HWLE}}{{Ref/Reuse|OSG}}
 
===Development history===
The X23 NNEMP was developed by the [[Materials Group]] in the early stages of the [[Human-Covenant War]] to counter [[Covenant]] power [[generator]]s and other important relaying stations during protracted battles. After it was found vehicles were sensitive to this particular EMP, the [[XRP12 Gremlin]] was made to support this weapon.{{Ref/Generic|Id=HWLE|[[Halo Wars Limited Edition]]|[[Personnel profile]] - [[Ellen Anders]]|LocalArchive=:File:HWDE Anders LeaderProfile.jpg}}{{Ref/Book|Id=OSG|Halo Wars: Official Strategy Guide|Page=38|Section=Firebase Units}} Its special [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] ability is entirely ineffective against infantry.
