In [[Halo 3]], the Plasma Cannon was redesigned. It now looks less like the [[Plasma Rifle]], and sports what appear to be shields or targeting displays on top of it. These could also be heat dissipation vanes; this is supported by the fact that the weapon cannot overheat even if the entire power supply is emptied non stop. The Halo 3 Plasma Cannon behaves exactly like the [[AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun|AIE-486H HMG]] in rate of fire, and has the same number of shots (200) when detached from the Gravity mount. Brutes can use the detached turret in the same manner as the player. | In [[Halo 3]], the Plasma Cannon was redesigned.
