Note 1 : To my best knowledge, Secondary Ring and High Yield Fusion Injector do not seem to have any gameplay effect.

Note 2 : According to the encyclopedia Active sensors are supposed to be useful for targetting purpose, however there’s no confirmation of this and judging from in-game experience is too subjective to provide a definite answer on this.
