November 8, 2023: With launch right around the corner, we've updated our MW3 equipment guide with all the latest intel.

There's a huge variety of Modern Warfare 3 equipment to master when loading into multiplayer. Sledgehammer Games' latest project provides players with plenty of different lethal and tactical equipment capable of making an impact on the battlefield.

In addition to an extensive list of guns and weapons and numerous maps to play, the selection of lethals and tacticals are capable of adding even more firepower to the best loadouts.

Before we reveal all the intel about the Modern Warfare 3 equipment, check out our other guides showcasing aftermarket parts and whether the game will feature SBMM.

All Modern Warfare 3 equipment

As expected, there's enough Modern Warfare 3 equipment to suit every single style of play imaginable. Without further ado, here are all of the lethals and tacticals available in multiplayer:

Lethals

  • Frag Grenade
  • Claymore
  • Throwing Knife
  • Thermite
  • Proximity Mine
  • Drill Charge
  • C4
  • Molotov Cocktail
  • Breacher Drone
  • Semtex
  • Thermobaric Grenade

The usual suspects of the Frag Grenade and Semtex are back for another year in addition to the Breacher Drone and Thermobaric Grenade. We'll have to wait and see how they influence the meta once everyone drops into the action.

Tacticals

  • Stun Grenade
  • Battle Rage
  • Smoke Grenade
  • Scatter Mine
  • Decoy Grenade
  • Flash Grenade
  • Snapshot Grenade
  • Shock Stick
  • Stim
  • Tear Gas
  • EMO Grenade

The Flash Grenade and Smoke Grenade are back once again while Battle Rage is downgraded from a Field Upgrade. The EMO Grenade and Scatter Mine are brand-new arrivals and could well spice up the meta once players master their mechanics.

What is the best Modern Warfare 3 equipment?

It's hard to tell what the best set of Modern Warfare 3 equipment is as they all possess unique characteristics that could dominate matches with additional damage or create some extra distractions.

As a baseline, we recommend the pairing of the Semtex and Flash Grenade thanks to its excellent versatility. Once we find a stronger combination, we'll update the guide with all the intel.
