Class-2 medium plasma mortar

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

A Revenant firing its Class-2 plasma mortar.

The Class-2 medium plasma mortar is a Covenant artillery weapon mounted on the Type-48 Light Assault Gun Carriage.^[1] It is a downscaled version of the heavy plasma mortar mounted on the Wraith and on some automated defensive turrets. While charging, the plasma possesses a bluish tinge, though it is red when it is fired. The weapon has a less pronounced parabolic arc than its larger cousin. The mortar can fire once every two to five seconds.^[2]
