The '''Light Plasma Mortar '''is essentially a downscaled version of the [[plasma mortar]] mounted on the Covenant [[Type-25 Assault Gun Carriage]]. 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.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_080610 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update 08.06.10'']</ref>
 
The mortar can fire one round every two to three seconds, unless it is mounted on a [[Type-52 Troop Carrier]] or a [[Type-25 Troop Carrier]] in which its firing rate is improved to about one shot every second.<ref name="BWU20">[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_082010 '''Bungie.net'': ''Bungie Weekly Update: 08.20.10'']</ref>
 
The Light Plasma Mortar is seen as the only weapon for the Covenant's [[Revenant (vehicle)|Revenant]] infantry support vehicle. It is also seen as the main gun for the Type-52 Troop Carrier, and the Type-25 Troop Carrier.<ref name="BWU20"/>
