The '''Pulse Submunitions Rifle''' is a type of heavy [[Plasma Weapon|Pulse Weapon]] utilized by [[T'au Empire]] [[Hazard Close Support Armour]].{{Fn|1}}

Essentially the [[t'au]] equivalent of a [[Grenade Launcher|heavy grenade launcher]], the rifle fires different types of ammunition for use against a variety of enemies (although most of these are still prototypes and thus exclusive to [[Tau Commander|commanders]] such as [[R'Alai|Shas'O R'Alai]]). These include the standard pulse submunitions round, the experimental ionic-cluster-beam shell for use against packs of lightly armoured infantry or targets in cover, the experimental hyper-density sabot for use against heavy infantry and light vehicles and the experimental EMP shell for use against armoured vehicles.{{Fn|2}}
