Template:FOF-1 The Energy Projector is a Covenant starship-mounted weapon that is possibly repurposed Forerunner technology.

Damage

It is believed to be the most devastating weapon in the Covenant arsenal, with an effective range of 100,000 kilometers - beyond the range of any UNSC weapon, including the Super Orbital Magnetic Accelerator Cannon. It fires a lance-thin, fluctuating beam of energy that spears through enemy warships at long range. However, before it fires, it typically emits a spike of radiation, allowing informed enemies to know when the projector is firing.

It can take down the shields of a Covenant frigate or a Covenant Heavy Destroyer with a single hit. However, it can effectively neutralize a UNSC frigate or UNSC destroyer's threat to friendly forces by surgically impacting critical systems like their MAC system, destroying them and making them effectively useless in combat.
