"An extraordinarily versatile weapon, with a wide variety of engagement ranges."
— Official description[5]

The BR75 Service Rifle[4] is a battle rifle used by the UNSC,[3] manufactured by Misriah Armory in Eos Chasma.[1]

Overview

Design

In appearance, the BR75 bears great similarity to the BR55 battle rifle. It features a scope mounted on a rail set into its carry-handle, and feeds from magazines of at least 36 rounds.[1] Some notable differences between the BR75 and its predecessor include an accessory rail mount on the left side of the handguard, and a new muzzle brake, though some variants feature a 2P flash hider which further increase similarities to the BR55. It is a highly versatile weapon, capable of engaging targets at a variety of ranges,[5] and is particularly suitable for long-range engagements.[4]

The weapon's side contains a barcode which translates to details of the weapon's manufacturer, the Misriah Armory facility at Eos Chasma, Mars. However models that are equipped with the 2P flash hider were standard for units manufactured on Reach.

History

The rifle was used by First Lieutenant Maks Chapov during Blue Team's mission to Reach in 2559,[4] and continued to see use in 2560 during the Battle for Zeta Halo.[6]

Variants

An excavated tunnel in Annex Ridge. From Halo Infinite campaign mission Annex Ridge.
BR75 Breacher variant
  • BR75 Breacher: An improved version of the BR75 that decreases the mag from 36 to 30, reduces zoom, and has increased damage and increased rate of fire.

Production notes

The BR75's firing sound was created from combining the sounds of the FN SCAR-H battle rifle and FN M240B medium machine gun.[7]
