The only mortars in Halo that are mentioned are of [[Covenant]] make: the two examples are the standard [[Type-25 Assault Gun Carriage|Wraith]]'s [[plasma mortar]] and the [[Fuel Rod Gun]] from [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] multiplayer. There are also portable plasma mortars that [[Grunts]] set up near the core of [[Onyx]], though these were never fired because their crews were all killed. | The only mortars in ''Halo'' that are mentioned are of [[Covenant]] make: the two examples are the standard [[Type-25 Assault Gun Carriage|Wraith]]'s [[plasma mortar]] and the [[Fuel Rod Gun]] from [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] multiplayer.
