The '''plasma charge''' is a [[Covenant]] air-to-ground [[plasma weapon]] utilized by [[Type-31 Seraph]] fighters for ground bombardment. They are initially focused pillars of [[plasma|superheated gas]], but quickly lose integrity and billow out into destructive conflagrations that can easily overwhelm most [[UNSC]] infantry armor, including the [[SPARTAN-III]]s' [[Semi-Powered Infiltration armor]]. This was seen during [[Operation: TORPEDO]], where a sustained usage of plasma charges resulted in the slaughter of dozens of the commandos of [[Beta Company]] in the open. The only way for the Spartan-IIIs to survive these attacks was for them to find cover.<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page 17''</ref>

The '''Plasma Charge''' is a [[Covenant]] air-to-ground [[plasma]] weapon utilized by [[Seraphs]] for ground bombardment. They are initially focused pillars of superheated gas, but quickly lose integrity and billow out into destructive conflagrations that can overwhelm even [[SPARTAN-III]] battle armor, as seen in the tragic [[Battle of Pegasi Delta]],  where there was sustained usage of plasma charges which was sufficient to slaughter hundreds of the commandos of [[Beta Company]] in the open. Only finding cover saved the SPARTAN-IIIs from Seraph plasma charges.
These seem to be the Covenant equivalent of unguided bombs or rockets, used similarly and functioning in a similar capacity.
