The '''Watchtower''' is an automated structure used by the [[UNSC]] to defend [[Firebase]]s by detecting [[Active camouflage|cloaked]] enemies.<ref name="HW2">'''[[Halo Wars 2]]'''</ref>  Additional Watchtowers extends the cloak detection range, and each Watchtower occupies a turret slot. The multi-modal stealth and jamming systems employed by the [[Covenant]] and [[Banished]] are a significant strategic challenge for the UNSC. Though improvements have been made, there is still a significant capability gap in detection range versus cloaking capabilities. Nevertheless, with microdrone clouds and hyper scanner technology acquired from former Covenant sources, UNSC firebases can deploy a short-range sensor network that will reliably reveal enemies otherwise shrouded by cloaking generators and active camouflage. Once detected, their location can be shared to all friendly units for targeting.<ref>''[[Halo Wars]]'', ''[[Phoenix Logs]]'' - Watchtower</ref>

During Campaign, the Banished cannot attack the Watchtower, but on Skirmish, it can be attacked. The watchtower itself allows player to monitor enemy movement and detects any possible threat coming to the Player. The Watchtower is introduced in ''[[From the Deep]]'' where [[Alice-130]] was stationed on defensive mission on beachhead. The Watchtower can be deployed by [[Ellen Anders|Anders]] in the [[Blitz]] gamemode.
