Damage dealt by the pulse laser turrets are known to be serious threats to most, if not all UNSC ships; a pulse laser salvo is capable of melting through {{Class|Paris|heavy frigate}} {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}}'s {{Convert|60|cm|in}} of [[Titanium-A armor]] hull in a single shot.{{Ref/Novel|Id=melt|TFOR|Chapter=12}} In this instance, the {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}} received severe damage in sections three and four, armor down to twenty-five percent and hull breach in section three .{{Ref/Reuse|melt}} | Damage dealt by the pulse laser turrets are known to be serious threats to most, if not all UNSC ships; a pulse laser salvo is capable of melting through {{Class|Paris|heavy frigate}} {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}}'s {{Convert|60|cm|in}} of [[Titanium-A armor]] hull in a single shot.{{Ref/Novel|Id=melt|TFOR|Chapter=12}} In this instance, the {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}} received severe damage in sections three and four, armor down to twenty-five percent and hull breach in section three.{{Ref/Reuse|melt}} | ||

Toward the later years of the [[Human-Covenant War]], humanity was able to develop a number of energy weapon systems based on technological advances resultant of reverse-engineered alien technology. As such, the [[United Nations Space Command]] have begun to employ pulse lasers on a small handful of their craft. These include the [[Magna-320 pulse laser]], used as a primary armament on the {{Class|Anlace|light frigate}} and several small pulse laser turrets employed on the [[G81 Condor]] gunship. | Toward the later years of the [[Human-Covenant War]], humanity was able to develop a number of energy weapon systems based on technological advances resultant of reverse-engineered alien technology.
