The '''Pulse Submunitions Rifle''' is a type of heavy [[Plasma Weapon|Pulse Weapon]] utilized by [[Tau Empire]] [[Hazard Close Support Armour]].{{Fn|1}}
Essentially the tau equivalent of a 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 commanders such as shas'o R'Alai). These include: the standard pulse submunitions round and 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}}
