Navigation beacons are UNSC satellites placed in orbit around occupied planets to assist ships in navigating around the planet. One such beacon, Navigation Beacon RA-15, was placed in orbit around Reach and helped pinpoint a Covenant Ceudar-pattern heavy corvette for boarding during Operation: UPPER CUT.[1]
The satellites are connected into the UNSC battle network, and can be used in conjunction with the H-165 target locator for targeting fire support missions. The locators display a graphic of the satellite on their screens.[2][3]
