Template:Weapon Infobox The Type-52 Guided Munitions Launcher/Explosive (T52 GML/E)[1], more commonly known as the Plasma Launcher[2], is a plasma-based explosive launcher used by the Covenant Empire during the Human-Covenant War.
Description
The weapon is capable of launching up to four explosive plasma grenade-like bolts at a single target, these can be fired individually as well if wished. The bolts track vehicles and bipeds in a similar way to the Needler, and will continue to track even if the operator is killed.[1] They also have a slight delay on them which makes the weapon capable of "from the grave kills".[2] It has an appearance slightly similar to the Fuel Rod Gun, as they are both a Covenant heavy weapon.[3][4]
Trivia
- The Plasma Launcher may fill the void for the primary Covenant heavy weapon, with the unknown status of the Type-25 Grenade Launcher and the Type-33 Light Anti-Armor Weapon being included in Halo: Reach.
- The sound file for the Plasma Launcher was first released in the Bungie Weekly Update 1/29/10, with the title "Mystery Weapon".
- The Plasma Launcher's grenade-like bolts mean it can be concidered the covenant counterpart of the M319 Individual Grenade Launcher. [5]
