Positron Rifle:
The Positron Rifle uses charged ion particles to create a beam of mass destruction. Although each Evangelion unit has a Pulsitron Rifle, NERV opted that they use an experimental version of the Pulsitron Rifle in Episode 5-6 because of the Angel's immensely powerful AT Field. This special rifle uses more than 185,000 kilowatts to operate at full capacity.





Lance of Longinus:
Introduced in Episode 22, the Lance of Longinus is a huge spear like weapon that can tear through an Angel's AT Field even when thrown from a long range. This weapon was retrived by Unit 00 from Adam which was resting inside the Terminal Dogma.
This weapon was used to save Asuka from the mind raping fifteenth Angel. Since the lane was used for an Angel that hovered in space, the velocity of Rei's through made the lance go into Earth orbit. It is currently circuling around the moon.





Progressive Knife or Prog-Knife:
This is a vibrating blade made up of a special alloy which makes the blade very sharp. This the most common weapon used by the Evangelion and this is located in the shafts above the arms.





Palette Rifles:
Used mainly by Evangelion Unit 01, these are the normal rifles used in battle. At the first kinds of Angels, the rifle was the weapon of choice for all Evangelions. However, they proved pretty useless in destroying the Angel in all but one occasion: the acid drooling Angel.





Pistol:
The pistol was seen in one episode only and also proved to be very useless. This pistol was used against the Angel with the inverted AT Field, however with the limited firepower of the gun, Shinji was not able to destroy it.





Shuttle Shield:
Used by Evangelion Unit 00 in Episode 6, the Shuttle Shield has a layer or protective shielding which helps it withstand 17 seconds of Pulsitron Rifle discharge. The Shuttle Shield name was used since the shield was really the underside of a pre-Second Impact shuttle craft used for space travel.





Axe:
Used by Evangelion Unit 02 during episode 18, this axe looks like your ordinary axe, however it can chop through virtually anything.





Spear:
Used mainly by Unit 02, this weapon was used during the Angel that could split up. Putting Asuka's mistake aside, the spear is a capable weapon that could be used against the Angel, however with the development of the axe, the spears were never seen again.
