The Brute Shot has a rather peculiar design, as the user carries it low, rather than using the hilt or handle of a weapon. It has a fast firing rate for a grenade launcher; capable of firing four grenades in about three seconds. Like the other Brute weapons, it has a blade slung onto its bottom to use for devastating melee attacks. The Brute Shot can hold up to 6 rounds, with 12 rounds in reserve. | The Brute Shot has a rather peculiar design, as the user carries it low, rather than using the hilt or handle of a weapon.

It seems to be compatible with two clips: a four-grenade belt that fires projectiles that bounce and arc downwards, and a six-grenade belt that fires propelled grenades in a straight line that detonate after three seconds. The four-grenade clip type fires a type of grenade similar to the [[frag grenade]], that bounces off of and around most surfaces. It was first encountered during [[Battle of Shield 0459]], where it was used to a deadly effect against the crew of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}}. The grenades seem to be [[Wikipedia:Belt (firearm)|belt fed]] through the top of the weapon. The splash damage from this weapon is rather high. It features a sharp curved bayonet on its underside, which is used as a powerful [[melee]] weapon. This blade delivers a higher-than-normal amount of melee damage. | It seems to be compatible with two clips: a four-grenade belt that fires projectiles that bounce and arc downwards, and a six-grenade belt that fires propelled grenades in a straight line that detonate after three seconds.

==Variants== | |||
There are two recorded variants of the Type-25 Brute Shot. Both models share many components and it is unclear if the [[Jiralhanae]] make any distinction between the two variants or if they simply used whichever model is at hand.<ref name="universe"/> | |||
*'''Type-25 Grenade Launcher''': The standard model of the Type-25 Brute Launcher is belt-fed with four grenades. These grenades are primed on impact, which allows them to be ricocheted off angled surfaces.<ref name="universe"/> | |||
*'''Type-25B Grenade Launcher''': This variant is a simplified model that is better suited for mass production. The Type-25B can hold six grenades in an internal magazine. The model's grenades are cheaply-made and explode on impact.<ref name="universe"/> | |||
