==Specifications==
==Overview==
===Design details===
The turret rests on an anti-gravity field emitted from a large tripod. The actuator that drives the weapon functions is considered semi-intelligent, obeying its directives with absolute precision. Shuku-pattern turrets are usually placed alongside A'uo'i-pattern sensor emplacements for target acquisition.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=267}}

===Usage===
''Shuku''-pattern turrets were once employed by the [[Covenant]] to guard important outposts. Following the end of the [[Human-Covenant War]] and fall of the [[Covenant]], many turrets remain active at their sectors, ready to engage trespassers that do not transmit the corresponding authorization codes, now impossible to acquire with the fall of [[High Charity]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
