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.

Other large ship classes, such as the [[Covenant Supercarrier]], may have it as well.The CCS Class Cruiser has them too, as shown in the above picture. Also the [[Covenant Battleship]] boasts 12 energy projectors, enough firepower to decimate any UNSC fleet.
