H-295 target designator

This article is about the Halo 4 variant. For the Halo: Reach variant, see H-165 Forward Observer Module.

The H-295 Forward Observer Module is a target designator used by the United Nations Space Command. It is likely a successor to the H-165 Forward Observer Module used during the Human-Covenant War.

Overview

The H-295 target designator is a secure-linked forward observer module that can perform firing acquisitions on any selected targets, calling in close-fire support. This support can come in a variety of forms depending on the area of operation and the proximity of the target. It is used to destroy enemy vehicles, vessels, and certain mission-specific objectives using available resources such as ship-mounted Magnetic Accelerator Cannons and the M510 Mammoth's dorsal mini-MAC. During the initial stages of the Battle of Requiem, it was used to destroy the Forerunner gravity well generators that kept UNSC Infinity pinned down inside the shield world.
