The Type-33 Light Anti-Armor Weapon[1] or Fuel Rod Cannon is a Covenant direct-fire energy weapon with anti-vehicle and anti-air applications. It is featured in Halo Halo 2 and in Halo 3. It is the secondary weapon of the Covenant Banshee and the primary weapon of the Anti-Air Wraith.
Description
The Fuel Rod Cannon is a Covenant heavy weapon used by their vehicles as a heavy weapon. Banshees, Anti-Air Wraiths, and Scarabs have all been seen using this weapon. It is a vehicle-mounted version of the infantry issue [[[Fuel Rod Gun]]. The Banshee's version of the weapon can only fire one shot before reloading, but it makes up for this with its virtually unlimited ammunition. The Halo 3 Scarab has also been seen firing volleys of Fuel Rod shots as a defense mechanism.
