The light plasma mortar is essentially a downscaled version of the plasma mortar mounted on the Covenant Type-25 Assault Gun Carriage. While charging, the plasma possesses a bluish tinge, though it changes to red when fired. The weapon has a less pronounced parabolic arc than its larger cousin,[1] and can fire one round every two to three seconds.[2]
