The '''M1011 Moray space mine''' is an explosive naval weapon employed by the [[United Nations Space Command]] for use in deep-space combat.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22P160|Enc22|Page=160}}


==Overview==
'''Moray space mines''' are explosives built by the [[UNSC]] for use in deep-space combat. They are dropped from the bays of [[Longsword]] Interceptors to mine locations within space from incursion. They use both proximity and remote detonators and have very high explosive payloads.
===Design details===
Moray [[space mine]]s carry a high explosive payload and small chemical propellant drives that allow them to track specific targets or maintain a pre-defined coordinate location in space. The system for deploying these mines can be controlled from within the launch craft, with up to three dozen mines coming equipped on a single mine rack.{{Ref/Novel|Id=FS5|HFS|Chapter=5}}


===Usage===
== Sources ==
Moray space mines are equipped aboard smaller [[prowler]]s and large [[Space fighter|strikecraft]] as a deployable ordnance, similar to the [[Nuclear weapon|nuclear]]-capable [[M441 Hornet Remote Explosive System|M441 Hornet space mines]] on larger prowlers. They may be equipped on [[C718 Longsword|C718]]{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P160}} and [[C709 Longsword]] fighters, with the latter requiring removal of the fighter's [[cryo chamber]] for the mine rack installation.{{Ref/Reuse|FS5}}
*''[[Halo: First Strike]]''


{{Class|Winter|prowler}}s are equipped with a single, aft-mounted '''CBU-R68 Moray mine rack''' as a secondary armaments. It is unclear whether the CBU-R68 designation refers to a new model of Moray mine, or the launching system itself.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/oni-acrisius|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=ONI Acrisius|D=30|M=06|Y=2021}}{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=129}}{{Ref/Book|HWF|Page=46-47}}

===Human-Covenant War===
[[Category:UNSC]]
During [[Skirmish over Threshold|the assault]] on ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'', Morays were used to destroy the ship's [[Seraph]] fighters making way for a Longsword to land on the [[Covenant]] ship. They may also have adhesive or magnetic quality to them as they were able to be attached to a remote piloted [[Pelican]] and later deployed from it.{{Ref/Reuse|FS5}}
