Template:SeeWikipedia A flamethrower (also incendiary) is an incendiary device assault weapon that projects a controllable stream of ignited flammable liquid or gas, such as blazing oil or gasoline, intended for use against enemy material or fortified positions.
Flamethrower may refer to the following:
United Nations Space Command
UNSC flamethrower and incendiary weapons rely on a chemical process between metal powders and oxides to create high temperatures, with no explosion. Commonly, aluminum and iron (III) oxide are used in the reaction; temperatures an upward of 2500°C (4500°F).
- Flamethrowers
- M7057/Defoliant Projector - Usable in the PC version of Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 3, and Halo 3: ODST.
- NA4/Defoliant Projector - Carried by Hellbringer troopers in Halo Wars. Consists of one or more fuel tanks, a cylinder of compressed gas to supply the propelling force, and a flexible hose with a trigger-nozzle that ignites and sprays the fuel. Portable flamethrowers are carried on the backs of ground troops; larger units may be installed on tank turrets.
- Other incendiary weapons
- Napalm grenade - See Napalm on Wikipedia.
- Thermite paste - Used by the UNSC for stealth missions where soldiers may encounter steel doors or other obstacles.
- Thermite grenade - A type of explosive incendiary ordnance used by the UNSC. The flames from the thermite grenade can burn underwater.
Covenant Empire
Covenant flamethrower/incendiary gel contains a stable yet hazardous chemical mixture containing Caesium. It burns at approximately twenty-two hundred degrees celsius, and will not burn underwater.
- Assault cannon - Variant of the standard Fuel Rod Gun utilized only by the Mgalekgolo. Fires in a mortar-like green projectiles, or in a searing continuous beam of incendiary gel, which burns when it contacts oxygen.
- Type-3 Antipersonnel/Antimatériel Incendiary grenade - Multi-purposed infantry explosives munition. Contains pyrophoric alkali metal Caesium chemical compound, a stable yet hazardous chemical compound that was developed by the Jiralhanae.
