| The '''plasma drill''', also called a '''mining laser''', is the sole armament of the [[Harvester]]s used by the [[Covenant remnant|post-war Covenant]]. It is primarily used as an excavation tool for the purposes of recovering Forerunner artifacts.
| |
| | |
| ==Design==
| |
| The plasma drill fires a single greenish-yellow energy beam, similar to that of a [[focus cannon]]. At full power, the beam is capable of drilling through multiple layers of solid rock.
| |
| | |
| ==Operational history==
| |
| During the [[Second Battle of Requiem]] in [[2558]], [[Fireteam Crimson]] used a captured Harvester's plasma drill to create an entrance in the side of the mountain where one of the Forerunner artifacts was hidden. <ref>'''Spartan Ops''', ''Episode 10, Chapter 5: "One Last Time"</ref>
