Against UNSC | Against UNSC Frigates, vessels, and ships, the weapon was able to pierce dozens of [[Titanium-A]] armor layers with comparative ease. Therefore, a single hit or perforation could potentially disable or destroy vital systems, such as MAC Cannon or engines, rendering the ship useless for combat. | ||
The beam is similar to the [[Particle Beam Rifle]] in how and what it fires although on a much larger scale. It is also speculated that the beam can be focused to varying degrees. On Reach it burned a hole through many many meters of earth. However in space they can be focused to a smaller, therefore more powerful beam generally used to decimate enemy ships from afar. It also seems to drain all or most of the energy in a Covenant ship for a brief period unless the ship is massive enough to supply the power without too much of a drain. This weapons is also used for [[Glass|glassing]] UNSC worlds. | The beam is similar to the [[Particle Beam Rifle]] in how and what it fires although on a much larger scale.
