 The PHALANX M-3 is a fully transatmospheric weapons platform. It is highly maneuverable in all theaters of battle, capable of changing direction and/or stopping its momentum near immediately. It can hover, scale walls, and effectively reduce its weight to negigible amounts effortlessly.  The PHALANX M-3 is a fully transatmospheric weapons platform.

 The EM-9L carbine is a suit-integrated weapon that feeds power and targeting information from the armor's power generator and combat computer. This weapon is a dual-mode weapon that utilizes both a particle disruptor and high-energy laser. The particle disruptor fires particle energy (340-11,700 kW) at the destructive frequency to shatter molecular bonds. Because of this, it is effective against light and medium armored targets. For smaller, softer targets, the EM-9L utilizes a pulse laser (150-1,560 kW). The weapon's firing mode can be chosen automatically by the targeting computer or manually by the user. The EM-9L carbine is a suit-integrated weapon that feeds power and targeting information from the armor's power generator and combat computer.

 Located in the palms and feet of the armor, the LF-44 plasma projectors allow the wearer to manipulate plasma generated by its power system. Capable of shaping and directing plasma bursts at enemies, these weapons allow the wearer a great deal of versatility on the field of battle. On impact, the kinetic energy of the plasma bolt is disrupted into a massive explosion, covering several meters. The extremely high temperature of the plasma means that it can pass through thick armor, and is also capable of super-heating the fluids of a living body to such temperature as to cause the skin and flesh to be ripped apart in the resulting steam explosion. In combat, the application of plasma by the user is virtually limitless. Located in the palms and feet of the armor, the LF-44 plasma projectors allow the wearer to manipulate plasma generated by its power system.

 Considered optional armament by most Marines in the field, the M-1 energy rifle utilizes hyperspace tap technology to create an energy beam with unprecedented power for a hand-held weapons system. A brute force weapon, it is powerful enough to pierce all-known shield types effortlessly. Considered a 'special-issue' weapon, the M-1 is only issued for space-based operations.  Considered optional armament by most Marines in the field, the M-1 energy rifle utilizes hyperspace tap technology to create an energy beam with unprecedented power for a hand-held weapons system.
