3D Model

The Flaktura Workshop Heavy Speargun, commonly known as the Skewer, is a Brute-manufactured sniper rifle/rocket launcher hybrid utilized by Banished forces. It is equipped with recon sight that can scope in for long-range shots, as well as a frontal bayonet to grant it extra melee capacity.

The skewer’s primary function is as an anti-tank spike cannon, its massive, sharpened projectile delivers armor-piercing capabilities that can perforate a vehicle’s battle plates or a Spartan’s power armor with relative ease. A common tactic is to arrange skewer-wielding Jiralhanae warriors along narrow chokepoints to decimate vehicle convoys and disrupt supply lines.

The Jiralhanae’s heavy speargun dates back long before the species joined the Covenant, an enduring facet of big-game hunting in the jungle vales of Doisac. The most novel iteration is the product of the Flaktura workshop, which resurrected the weapon’s legacy architecture to create yet another imposing element of the Banished war machine.
