MW3 Multiplayer: All Tactical Equipment
In Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer, every Operator will be able to slot one of 11 different Tacticals into their Loadout. There's actually 12 different pieces of Tactical Equipment in Modern Warfare 3, but one is exclusive to Zombies Mode (Experimental Gas Grenade). In Multiplayer, players will be able to select none, one or two of the following depending on Vest capacity:
Stun Grenade
- Slows victim’s movement and aiming.
Battle Rage
- Experimental stimulant that gives you an adrenaline rush. Health regenerates quickly, Tactical Equipment is resisted, and Tactical Sprint is constantly refreshed.
Smoke Grenade
- Deploys a smoke screen that blocks vision and automated targeting systems.
Scatter Mine
- Throw a field of mines across a wide area that detonates when enemies come within range.
Decoy Grenade
- Counter-intel grenade that simulates gunfire, movement, and radar signatures to confuse the enemy.
Flash Grenade
- Blinds and deafens targets.
Snapshot Grenade
- Provides a momentary glimpse of enemies within the blast radius for your team or squad.
Shock Stick
- Electrical device that sticks to surfaces. Electrocutes enemies, destroys equipment, and causes vehicles to go haywire.
Stim
- Military stimulant that promotes clotting to close wounds quickly and refreshes Tactical Sprint.
Tear Gas
- Explodes on impact with the ground, releasing a lingering cloud of tear gas that causes slowed movement, blurred vision, and coughing.
EMD Grenade
- Applies a tracking device to enemies hit, revealing them on your team’s minimap.
MW3 Multiplayer: All Lethal Equipment
Much like the Tacticals available in Multiplayer, there are 11 pieces of Lethal Equipment available. There's 12 in Modern Warfare 3 overall, but one is exclusive to Zombies Mode (Molotov Cocktail). In Multiplayer, players can choose to carry none, one or two pieces of Lethal Equipment depending on Vest capacity.
Frag Grenade

Claymore
- Proximity-activated explosive mine.
Throwing Knife
- Retrievable throwing knife that is lethal on impact in Core MP.

Proximity Mine
- Proximity-triggered explosive that launches in the air, and deals heavy damage to the surrounding area.
Drill Charge
- Charge with a thermal lance that can burrow into surfaces before exploding.
Semtex
- Timed sticky grenade.
