The '''Energy Disruptor''' is a [[UNSC]] device that disables [[Covenant]] plasma weapons and energy shields. It has been seen in use by [[Headhunters (Team)|Headhunter]] teams. It functions almost identically to the Covenant [[Power Drain]] and was most likely reverse-engineered by [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]], using the same technology. The technology is in a prototype stage and were tested in the field by the [[Spartan-III]] [[Headhunters (Team)|Headhunter]] team.

If the Energy Disruptor was reverse-engineered from the Power Drain, it has most probably been heavily improved, as is the case with most of ONI's reverse-engineered Covenant technology. An example of this is the Covenant's energy shield technology, which was improved by [[Project MJOLNIR]]. Given the fact that it can disable plasma weapons, (a feature not utilized by the Energy Drain) this is most likely the case.  
The '''energy disruptor''' is a [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] device that was reverse engineered from the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]]-designed [[power drain|power drain device]].  It deactivates both standard electronics and the plasma-based weapons and energy shielding of the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] which have been noted to be very sturdy pieces of technology by UNSC soldiers.<ref>'''[[Halo Evolutions: Essential Tales of the Halo Universe]]''', ''[[Headhunters (short story)|Headhunters]]'', Chapter 4, ''page 175'' (2009 paperpack); ''page 226'' (2010 Volume 1 paperback)</ref>
 
It seems to be easily blocked by walls, as the [[SPARTAN-III Program|SPARTAN-III]] [[Jonah-B283]] waited just outside a Covenant barracks while using an energy disruptor; though the Covenant troops inside were affected, his armor remained intact.<ref>'''Halo Evolutions: Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', ''Headhunters'', Chapter 4, ''page 178'' (2009 paperpack); ''page 229'' (2010 Volume 1 paperback)</ref>
