Binoculars allow you to increase distance of your view in direction you are looking. To zoom in, take them into your hand and activate them by pressing "Page Down" or "Z" (in Hotkey Mode) or clicking them while they are in your hand.
Rangefinders allow you to get tile coordinates (longitude and latitude) by lasing it while zoomed in (produces a GREEN laser). Ctrl + Click on any open tile to start lasing. Ctrl + Click on your rangefinders to stop lasing without zooming out. Coordinates can be used by Staff Officers to send supply drops or to perform Orbital Bombardment. You also can use them to call mortar fire if there are engineers with a mortar.
Laser designators have a second mode (produces a RED laser) that allows highlighting targets for Close Air Support performed by dropship pilots.
They also have a fixed ID number that is shown on the pilot's weaponry console. Examine the laser designator to check its ID. Red laser must be maintained as long as needed in order for the dropship pilot to bomb the designated area. To switch between lasing modes, Alt + Click the laser designator. Alternatively, Right + Click it in hand and click "Toggle Mode".
