Is the Eagle Airstrike Worth It?

Better than the Cluster Bomb

Tier Rating A Tier A Tier

The Eagle Airstrike is good even at higher difficulties. This is capable of clearing smaller targets but with the addition of possibly taking out small armored enemies like the Hive Guard should the bombs drop on them.

How to Unlock Eagle Airstrike

Available after Reaching Level 2

Eagle Airstrike can be unlocked for purchase after reaching level 2. You can buy this Stratagem for 4000 Requisition Slips in the Ship Management console located inside your ship.

How to Use Eagle Airstrike

Throw on to Enemies

The Eagle Airstrike will bring down its devastating firepower at the location you signal it to immediately after throwing it.

Note that although this type of Stratagem is easy to use, it is also quite easy to mess it up. Avoid throwing the signal close to you or any of your squad mates to prevent friendly fire.

Use Ship Module Upgrades

Use Ship Modules to further increase the effectiveness of Stratagems on the field. Listed below are the following Ship Modules that augment and enhance the Eagle Airstrike Stratagem:

  1. Liquid-Ventilated Cockpit
  2. Expanded Weapons Bay
