| The '''Oracle scope''' is a series of [[Telescopic sight|telescopic scopes]] optic used by the [[United Nations Space Command]] on their [[Sniper rifle (disambiguation)#UNSC|sniper rifle]]s.{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22|Enc22|Page=170}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=HGOOC23|HGoO|Chapter=23}}

| ==Overview==
| | The '''Oracle N-variant scope''' is an optic used by the [[United Nations Space Command]] on their [[sniper rifle]]s. The Oracle N-variant scope features thermal enhancement, a neutron detector, and increased range over other optics used by the UNSC.<ref name="GoO">'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 204''</ref> |
| The Oracle is the most common sniper rifle optics system used in the UNSC, and features a number of models with variable magnifications ranging from 2x to 10x. They are fully [[smart scope]] and [[Smart-linking|smart-link]] compatible, allowing them to link to most [[heads-up display]]s and utilise a range of specialised image enhancements. These include infrared and night vision, alongside other more specialised options.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}} | |

|
| ==Variants== | | ==Background== |
| A number of variants of the Oracle scope are used throughout the UNSC. Models in production as of [[2560]] include the E, K, L, N, and R-variants. The most notable of these are detailed below.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

| The Oracle N-variant scope features a range finder,{{Ref/Novel|HGoO|Chapter=24}}, thermal enhancement, and a neutron detector. The range of the scope can be microadjusted with a fine set of screwdrivers{{Ref/Reuse|HGOOC23}} and can be also be linked to a datapad to make microcalibrations.{{Ref/Novel|HGoO|Chapter=29}} The Oracle-N features 5x and 10x magnifications.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
