The HU/RS, which combines the hardened uplink with a remote sensor, is an attachment for several UNSC helmets. Although it was previously available only to [[Beta-5 Division|Beta-5]] security teams and select [[UNSC Army|Army]] rapid-reaction forces,{{Ref/Game|Id=H5G|Game=H5G|Section=Armor customization (Halo 5: Guardians)|SectionLinkText=Spartan Appearance Customization|Detail=Military Police Helmet Description|Quote=Previously available only to Beta-5 security teams and select Army rapid-reaction forces, Military Police helmets have found a home with Spartan-IV fireteams that require its hardened uplink, command network module, and remote sensor controller.}} it was also employed by [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers]] during [[Fall of Reach]].{{Ref/Game|Id=odst|Game=HR|Section=Campaign|SectionLinkText=ODST in-game models}} The attachment is also a favorite among sniper units employing the [[GUNGNIR-class Mjolnir|GUNGNIR]] and [[SCOUT-class Mjolnir|SCOUT]] helmets.{{Ref/Game|Id=sniper|Game=HR|Section=Armor customization (Halo: Reach)|SectionLinkText=Armory|Detail=GUNGNIR and Scout - HU/RS Helmet Description|Quote=Hardened uplink/remote sensor package.

The hardened uplink/remote sensor package (HU/RS) or hardened uplink-improved/remote sensor package (HUL-I/RS) is an external helmet attachment, which integrates the Hardened Uplink with a remote sensor into a single attachment, employed by the United Nations Space Command.[1][2][3]

Modules[edit]

The HU/RS and HUL-I/RS packages have two observed modules, both with its own distinct physical appearance.

AN/PZY-6000 ARGON[edit]

The helmets of Mjolnir Mark V Scout and its GEN2 successor, the VIGILANT-class Mjolnir, accept the AN/PZY-6000 ARGON package, which is employed as a reconnaissance and surveillance module. It is visually similar to a pair of head-mounted binoculars. The package was manufactured by Materials Group and introduced during the Human-Covenant War, when aerial and orbital sensor platforms had been destroyed during Covenant invasions.[4] The attachment is a favorite among sniper units employing the SCOUT helmets.[5] This module was employed by Jun-A266.

AN/PZY0980ASTS FACELIFT[edit]

Manufactured by RKD Group and compatible with most helmets on the MJOLNIR [GEN3] platform, the AN/PZY0980ASTS FACELIFT sensor package adds a second electro-optical suite and battlenet-updatable ECCM module.[6]

The FACELIFT module has been observed to be compatible with the following helmets:[6]

In-game information[edit]

The HU/RS and HUL-I/RS serve as a cosmetic option and have no impact on gameplay.

Halo: Reach[edit]

There are two HU/RS modules available as attachments on several helmets in the armor permutations of Halo: Reach. The device is priced at different levels of Credits, depending on the base helmets. In Halo: The Master Chief Collection, the same HU/RS-attached helmets are unlockable in Season 1: Noble.
