Assault cannon (Earth-5875)

Assault cannons are massively powerful Covenant weapons. Similar to the Type-33 fuel rod gun, they are designed for heavy infantry, and are mostly used by mgalekgolo soldiers, although they are also featured in the gravity thrones of the Hierarchs. The weapon is fired in two methods, the primary and most common being the firing of incendiary gel, similar to fuel rods, while the other fires a continuous stream.

Design details
The standard issued assault cannon is unique and heavy, and thus only capable of being used by a mgalekgolo. They are integrated into the mgalekgolo's armor right "arm". The nozzle of the cannon is surrounded by three metallic finger-like structures, whihc serve as manipulators of the projectile. Many translucent tubes are seen in the cannon, which contain the green incendiary gel. A yellow-colored version is featured in the gravity thrones used by the Hierarchs and other high-ranking san'shyuum.
