- "An extraordinarily versatile weapon, with a wide variety of engagement ranges."
- — Official description[4]
The BR75 Service Rifle[3] is a battle rifle used by the UNSC,[2] manufactured by Misriah Armory in Eos Chasma.[1]
History
The rifle was used by First Lieutenant Maks Chapov during Blue Team's mission to Reach in 2559,[3] and continued to see use around 2560 during the Installation 07 conflict.[1]
Design
In appearance, the BR75 bears great similarity to the BR55 battle rifle. Its 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. It is a highly versatile weapon, capable of engaging targets at a variety of ranges,[4] and is particularly suitable for long-range engagements.[3]
Details
If you scan the exterior of the BR75, you can find a 2D Label followed by an obscure dot code, which when scanned, translates to Eos Chasma, the location on Mars which holds one of many places of Misriah Armory. You can fond similar details on weapons such as the CQS48 Bulldog, the S7 Sniper and the VK78 Commando.
The BR75's firing sound was created from combining the sounds of the FN SCAR-H battle rifle and FN M240B medium machine gun.[5]
