  • The M56 Smart Gun is a fictional weapon, first appearing in Aliens, the second film in the Alien film series.

The name "Smart Gun" comes from the advanced firing computer which is integrated into the weapon. This computer is capable of various enhancements to the operation, the most obvious being that it can help the operator by locking onto moving targets (usually the center of mass of a target) and aiming the weapon. The entire mechanism can swivel in a limited arc to correct the shooter's aim. When a target has been acquired it is up to the operator to choose to fire. This function can be toggled on or off, as well as combined with other aspects of the weapon. Since the weapon is heavy and has a large bulk due to the targeting computer, ammunition storage and the attached mechanics a special vest was developed to make the weapon more comfortable to handle.
