The VK78 fires 6.5mm rounds on automatic, and is fitted via rail-mounting with a [[recon sight]]-style optic that can magnify up to at least x3. It is distinctive among human rifles in that it does not share the common bullpup configuration of weapons like the [[MA40 assault rifle]] and [[BR75 battle rifle]], in which the magazine is inserted behind the trigger. Instead, the magazine well is located at an angle directly in front of the trigger guard. | The VK78 fires 6.5mm rounds on automatic, and is fitted via rail-mounting with a [[recon sight]]-style optic that can magnify up to at least x3.

Above the pistol grip is a fire selector dial, with two markings, the former of which is a row of red dots (presumably indicating fully-automatic) and the latter of which is a single white dot (potentially safe or semi-automatic). The weapon features numerous markings, including serial numbers, caliber specifications on the body and bolt carrier, and a small UNSC emblem atop a wedge-like protrusion in front of the top-mounted rail, behind the barrel. The VK78 used in 2560 features a matte black, grey and olive drab finish, with a prominent white strip across the weapon's front end.{{Ref/Reuse|HICGP}} | ||

The VK78 can hold 20 rounds at one time with an observed 60 rounds reserve. The pickup prompt indicates that the VK78 is a "tactical rifle", with "kinetic" and "auto" properties. This indicates that its rate of fire, while cyclically slow, is technically automatic in the same manner as the [[M6D]] in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] and [[Halo 5: Guardians]]. | The VK78 can hold 20 rounds at one time with an observed 60 rounds reserve.
