Guidance lock

Guidance Locks are UNSC technology designed to guide missile or rocket ordnance to their intended target. The lock is projected through the launcher, be it a shoulder-mounted rocket launcher or a capital ship.

Most UNSC missile systems possess guidance locks, including 102mm High-Explosive Anti-Tank rockets fired from the M19 SSM or the M41 SSR MAV/AW rocket launcher, Anaconda Surface-to-Air Missiles, Argent V Missiles, and ordnance launched from starships such as Shiva-class Nuclear Warheads and Archer Missiles. Some mine-type explosives such as Moray Space Mines also possess guidance locks.
