Modern Warfare 3 (MW3) Field Upgrades complete list
Field Upgrades in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 serve roughly the same purpose as Field Equipment, albeit with some minor alterations. These upgrades provide a plethora of gameplay-altering perks and tools that you can use to get an advantage over your enemies in multiplayer. However, you can only equip a limited number of them.
Here's a list of all the Field Upgrades that you will have access to in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 (MW3):
- Trophy System: This upgrade essentially enables a deployable autonomous defense system that can be used to destroy up to three nearby enemy equipment and projectiles. It is best used to scramble groups or redirect them to a different spot on the map.
- Comm Scrambler: This one disables communication for enemies within a certain radius, which deactivates their killstreaks temporarily.
- Med Box: The Med bed deploys a box of medical supplies for you and your teammates.
- Munitions Box: The Munitions Box deploys a crate of ammunition and equipment refill for you and your teammates.
- A.C.S.: A.C.S. stands for Automated Computer Spike, which captures points and temporarily hacks nearby enemy devices, albeit at a slow speed.
- Heartbeat Sensor: The Heartbeat Sensor allows you to locate enemies within close proximity to you for a short amount of time.
- Inflatable Decoy: This is a proximity-activated landmine, best used as bait for groups of enemies.
- Tactical Insertion: The Tactical Insertion lets you automatically mark a location as your next spawn point.
- Tactical Camera: This camera allows you to tag enemies remotely.

- Deployable Cover: A portable cover that you can use as a makeshift shield against enemies.
- Recon Drone: The Recon Drone serves the identical purpose as the Tactical Camera, albeit with the added functionality of auto-tagging enemies.
- Dead Silence: This tool temporarily makes your footsteps inaudible to enemies.
- Loadout Drop: The Loadout Drop lets you summon a team-based loadout crate.
- Portable Radar: This upgrade pings enemies, making them easy to detect for a short time.

- Suppression Mine: This option slows enemy movement and temporarily blinds them when triggered.
- Anti-Armor Rounds: These rounds allow you to deal damage to armored enemies and vehicles, which are otherwise invulnerable to normal bullets.
