CoD Modern Warfare 3 Killstreaks List and Guide
 In this Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Killstreaks List and Guide, you
will not only getting a full list of all the killstreaks and what is required to get the rewards, but also the
function of each killstreak.
Finally, we will also be going over the pros and cons of each killstreak for each build and game-mode. This way,
you can pick the right killstreaks for the type of game you are playing, your skill level, and for your particular
weapon.
Note that every 5 or so levels you can unlock a new Assault and Support kit killstreak. You can then equip these
when you make your custom classes. By max level you can get every Assault and Support killstreak reward unlocked.
Everything for the Specialist package unlocks at the same time - upon reaching level 20.
With that said, here is the list:
Assault Package Killstreaks List
Below, you will find a full Modern Warfare 3 Killstreaks list for each of the Assault Package killstreak
rewards. If you want more information and good tips on using each killstreak in the Assault Package, check our
Modern Warfare 3 Assault Killstreaks Guide.
|
Killstreak Name
|
Kills Required
|
Function
|
|
UAV
|
3
|
Marks all enemies on map every few seconds for 30 seconds. Blocked by the
Assassin Perk.
|
|
Care Package
|
4
|
Drops a box from the sky which contains a random Assault Killstreak reward.
Can include any reward, but also can be stolen by enemies.
|
|
I.M.S.
|
5
|
Large proximity explosive device with large radius. Contains 4
charges.
|
|
Predator Missile
|
5
|
Remote controlled rocket that descends from the sky. Enemy players without
the Blind Eye perk are highlighted in red. Pressing the trigger makes the rocket speed up at the
cost of control.
|
|
Sentry Gun
|
5
|
Places a rotating gun turret with about 100 degrees of range that
automatically shoots at enemies. Cannot shoot at opponents with the Blind Eye perk. Can be
destroyed by an EMP grenade or knifing from behind. Takes a lot of bullets to destroy though.
|
|
Precision Airstrike
|
6
|
Calls in an airstrike which deals area of effect damage. Fairly small
range, expanding out a bit from the direction that the arrow is pointing when called in. A UAV will
mark players on your map.
|
|
Attack Helicopter
|
7
|
Calls in a computer-controlled attack helicopter which will automatically
attack opponents. Fairly light and can be taken down by a single SAM or Javelin shot.
|
|
Strafe Run
|
9
|
Calls in a pack of helicopters which fly over the map, then double back and
take out any players who have not yet gotten cover. Covers a large range and is hard to take down,
but is very easy to dodge by cognizant players.
|
|
AH-6 Overwatch
|
9
|
A beefier attack Helicopter. Does a little more damage and is a bit harder
to take down. Typically gets more kills than an Attack Helicopter.
|
|
Reaper
|
9
|
Player-controlled aircraft which shoots rockets. After firing a rocket, a
red spray appears on the ground. You can move this red spray over your target with the joystick.
The rocket fired will land on the red target when the number on the screen goes to 0 (the number
represents the distance of the rocket from impact).
|
|
Assault Drone
|
10
|
Player-controlled Assault Vehicle which roams the map and has a gun turret.
Very effective, but is marked on the mini-map. Hard to destroy with bullets. Is not disabled
entirely by an EMP grenade - requires many bullets, a rocket or Predator Missile to be
destroyed.
|
|
AC-130
|
12
|
Very powerful player controlled aircraft. Launches rockets like the Reaper, but
also has a gun turret. When rockets are on cooldown, you can switch over to the gun turret and take
out a player or two, swap back to the rockets, and so on.
|
|
Pave Low
|
12
|
The most powerful version of the Attack Helicopter. Will not go down to a
single rocket and is much more apt to kill players in one hit. Usually gets quite a few kills.
|
|
Juggernaut
|
15
|
Gives you a set of powerful armor which makes you incredibly hard to kill.
You can take a full 30 rounds from an Assault Rifle or a few direct grenade hits and live with no
problem. You get to keep your weapon with the Assault Kit version.
|
|
Osprey Gunner
|
17
|
Allows you to control the gun turret of an Osprey Gunner. This is a large
and powerful aircraft which will drop out care packages for your team while you shoot any nearby
enemy players with the turret you control.
|
Support Package Killstreaks List
Below, you will find a full list of all the Support Package killstreaks in Modern Warfare 3. For information on
the best killstreaks to use in this package, be sure to consult our Modern Warfare 3 Support Package Killstreaks Guide.
Note that the "Kills Required" for the Support Package do not have to be consecutive - they simply refer to your
total number of kills in a given match.
|
Killstreak Name
|
Kills Required
|
Function
|
|
UAV
|
4
|
Displays the location of all enemies on the mini-map every few seconds for 30
seconds. Does not effect players using the Assassin perk.
|
|
Counter-UAV
|
5
|
Jams enemy radar for 30 seconds. Does not effect players using Assassin Pro.
|
|
Ballistic Vests
|
5
|
Drops a crate of vests which teammates can pick up which gives them extra armor.
You get points every time someone uses this, which is nice.
|
|
Airdrop Trap
|
5
|
Drops a fake Care Package which explodes if an enemy tries to take it.
|
|
SAM Turret
|
8
|
Places a turret which will automatically shoot rockets at enemy air support and
killstreak rewards. Surprisingly effective if left undestroyed.
|
|
Recon Drone
|
10
|
Gives players a small helicopter which they can use to tag enemies. Tagging
opponents with this copter stuns them for a second and paints them on the mini-map for all players
to see.
|
|
Advanced UAV
|
12
|
Works much like a UAV but also displays the direction players are facing with
each pulse. This makes flanking opponents much easier.
|
|
Remote Sentry
|
12
|
Places a small gun turret which can be controlled by the player remotely.
|
|
Stealth Bomber
|
14
|
Drops a large carpet bomb across the entire length of the map. Always place on
the outskirts of the map with the arrow pointing the direction you want, as this killstreak will
then cross the entire map dropping bombs for a decent amount of width in the direction the arrow is
pointing.
|
|
EMP
|
18
|
Disables all enemy electronics, including electric sights on weapons, the score
screen, radar, and bullet count.
|
|
Juggernaut Recon
|
18
|
Drops a Juggernaut suit of armor for you to pick up, but replaces your weapon
with a pistol.
|
|
Escort Airdrop
|
18
|
Brings in a computer controlled Osprey Gunner which drops a large number of Care
Packages and fake care packages. Once in position, it will shoot at enemy players who try to take
the dropped care packages.
|
Specialist Killstreak Rewards
The Specialist Killstreak simply gives you access to more perks. In addition to your three starting perks, you
unlock a 4th perk at 2 kills, a 5th perk at 4 kills, a 6th perk at 6 kills, and finally you unlock all perks in the
game at 8 kills.
It is an interesting killstreak reward indeed, but it is hard for the vast majority of the playerbase to justify
using these rewards over the standard killstreaks in-game.
You can read specific tips and tricks for making the most out of the Specialist package in our Modern Warfare 3 Specialist Killstreak guide.
