Smart-linking

Smart-linking is the process of linking an optical scope to the user's heads-up display. The technology is used in most UNSC infantry firearms.

List of smart-linked scopes

• KFA-2 x2 (M6B, M6D, M6F, M6G(B) and M6H)
• VnSLS/V 6E (M6C/SOCOM)
• Wyrd III (W/AV M6 G/GNR)

Production notes

Smart-linking acts as the fictional basis for the new "smart scope" Spartan ability in Halo 5: Guardians. The smart scope allows players to activate a holographic zoom-in overlay with an enhanced targeting reticle while using any ranged weapon. Apart from easing the player's aiming the weapon's accuracy is not affected by the smart scope.
