The Explosive Drone is one of the new Lethal Equipment in Modern Warfare 3. It is capable of scoring operator kills by exploding on enemy proximity or direct impact.

How to Get Operator Kills

Very Strong in Multiplayer Due to Its Large Explosion Radius

The Breacher Drone has a large explosion radius and can easily kill enemies, even those hiding behind cover. Combined with its deceptively fast speed, you're almost guaranteed to get one kill if you have one available.

Can Be Resupplied Using the Munitions Box

To use the Breacher Drone, select it in your loadout in the Lethal Equipment slot. You can pair it with the Demolition Vest so that you deploy with two Breacher Drones in your loadout.

Take note that the Engineer Vest and CCT Comms Vest do not have a Lethal Equipment slot, so you won't be able to use the Breacher Drone if you have one of them equipped!
