From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Template:Explosives List

"Copy that. Someone get a satchel on the gate!"
— Sergeant Avery J. Johnson

The Satchel Charge is a United Nations Space Command ground explosive.

Usage

Marines use satchel charges to clear large, reinforced doors or obstacles out of the way, although they are also often used as offensive weapons to dislodge dug-in enemy troops. These charges are also capable of blowing through three-meter thick battleplate.

It may be standard equipment for UNSC Marines.

Appearances

  • Outskirts - Sergeant Johnson orders a Marine to set a satchel charge to break through a gate that is impeding their incursion. The charge is never used, as a Hunter pair lumbers through the gate and attacks.
  • Metropolis - One such charge can be found next to a dead Marine in the first Ampitheater. A Rocket Launcher is also laying besides the corpse.
