The effectiveness and efficiency of mass-effect-based weapon technology has rendered large-scale deployment of high explosive weaponry all but obsolete in infantry weapons.

Normandy's scientists have prototyped a modified weapon of traditional high-explosive rounds that is applied to a 25-gram slug. When accelerated to 5 km/s, the round is devastating. Though a technically inaccurate label, this prototype weapon is nicknamed the "Nuke Launcher," and its high- explosive matrix generates an archetypical mushroom cloud in impact.

Inflicts high damage with a large area of effect. Very effective against armor, shields, and biotics.
