Solution: At the Fall of Reach, the humans decided to load all of their best weapon prototypes and experimental indestructible vehicles onto one ship, The Pillar of Autumn, which they promptly sent into deep space. This ship of perpetual awesomeness was then led to a big metal ring by a translucent glowing purple girl, because everyone knows that girls like big shiny things. Unfortunately, she left the Slipspace gate open, letting all the Covenent through. This same glowing purple girl then shrunk to microscopic levels to take over a random green Spartan's brain, forcing him to blow up the ship of perpetual awesomeness in order to prevent the Covenant from having the metal ring, because if she couldn't have it, no one could. The combined awesomeness of nuclear pistols and indestructible warthogs exploding contained just enough energy to blow up the big metal ring.
So, a year later, when the humans found another ring, they were unable to blow it up because all of their awesome weapons had already been destroyed. Otherwise they could have just blown up a regular frigate on the second ring's surface... But of course that would never work.
Thus the stupidity of Halo weapon's technologies is somewhat explained.
