Navigation beacon
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
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]
