The headgear shown from the front-left.

Kig-yar targeting headgear is a piece of Covenant technology utilized by Kig-yar snipers.[1] It likely provides the user with zoom and other additional targeting capabilities. However, it also places the wearer at a disadvantage, as its targeting lights can be easily seen, threatening to expose the wearer.

Appearance

Halo 3

In Halo 3, the device is an angular piece of metal that covers only the left side of the user's face. Three small lenses protrude from the left side, presumably to aid in targeting. Although the lights on the helmet allow the sniper to be easily seen, they only light up when they have found a target, forcing the player to put themselves at risk if they wish to know where the Jackal is.[2]

Halo: Reach

In Halo: Reach, the device is more curved and covers less of the user's face. In addition, a blue Covenant glyph is visible covering the right eye.

Halo 4

In Halo 4, the device now covers the user's entire face. It has one cyclopean eye lens in the middle front that glows red-pink and overall the headgear resembles a full helmet.
