Daddy's home.
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This is my first thread on a scale this big. I will be talking about the Modern Warfare 2 Killstreak Vehicles and what they are like compared to real life. Let's begin!
[multipage=3 Killstreak]

UAV - Unmanned Aerial Vehicle.

There are a few types of UAV in existance. There are a few Helicopter type UAV's or the ones seen in Modern warfare 2. The main varients are an MQ 1, MQ1 C Warrior or an MQ 9 Reaper. I will talk about all three.

MQ 1

The MQ 1 has been in operation since 1995. The MQ 1 was initially going to be RQ 1. The "R" standing for reconnaissance, the Q refering to unmanned aircraft system and the being the first of a series. The United States Airforce later (2002) changed the R to an M, which stands for "Multi Role"

Care package

Although there are air drops in real life, they don't drop the rewards like they do in Modern warfare 2. Instead, it is most likely vehicle drops such as quad bikes, or maybe some ammunition drops. The helicopter could well be a little bird, however, I can not be sure of the Varient, although it could be based on the newer MH-6M. The littlebirds are mostly used by the US Special Forces
as they are small and relativly fast.

Crew: 2: pilot and co-pilot
Capacity: up to 6 passengers for MH-6s
Length: 32.6 ft (9.80 m)
Rotor diameter: 27.4 ft (8.30 m)
Height: 9.8 ft (3.0 m)
Empty weight: 1,591 lb (722 kg)
Useful load: 1,509 lb (684 kg)
Max takeoff weight: 3,100 lb (1,406 kg)
Powerplant: 1× One T63-A-5A or T63-A-700 turboshaft, 650 hp (485 kW)- full rated power
Power, derated: for takeoff: 425 shp (317 kW); continuous: 375 shp (280 kW)
Fuselage Length: 24.6 ft (7.50 m)
Fuselage Width: 4.6 ft (1.4 m)
Rotor systems: 6 blades on main rotor, 4 blades on tail rotor
Useful fuel capacity: 62 US gal (242 L) or 403 lb (183 kg)
Maximum speed: 152 knots (175 mph, 282 km/h)
Cruise speed: 135 knots (155 mph, 250 km/h)

Service ceiling: 18,700 ft (5,700 m)
Rate of climb: 2,061 ft/min (10.5 m/s)

Counter UAV

As of what I can find, these don't exist in real life. In Modern warfare 2, the counter UAV is the same shape as a UAV. I'm not too sure, but UAV's could have a jamming system on board, but I'm only speculating. As I can not find much information on this, I'm also going to speculate that it could based off of radar jammers, but I am in no way sure.

Sentry Gun

Believe it or not, these actually exist, however, they are not used on humans but more for missile defence for ships. These could however, be developed for Military use for the same way as used in Modern Warfare 2 in the future.
The Phalanx CIWS is the only deployed close-in weapon system capable of autonomously performing its own search, detect, evaluation, track, engage and kill assessment functions.

Predator Missile

You must login or register to view this content.

Please see UAV's for specs.

A predator missile is again real. These, though, do not have controlable missiles like in Modern Warfare 2. They are fired from a UAV which is the same as in page . The UAV's use an AGM-114 Hellfire missile which is capable of Air to surface and Surface to Surface.
They use a laser guided missile for perfect accuracy.

This is the same as the Care package. The Plane used is most likely a C-130 Hercules. The model in the game however, is the AC-130 model, most likely to save time. The AC-130 is a specialized gunship and has no room for cargo.
It is designed for troop, medical evacuation and cargo transportation.

The B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber is designed to not show on enemy radar. The B-2's low-observable, or "stealth", characteristics give it the ability to penetrate an enemy's most sophisticated anti-aircraft defenses to attack its most heavily defended targets. The bomber's stealth comes from a combination of reduced acoustic, infrared, visual and radar signatures, making it difficult for opposition defenses to detect, track and engage the aircraft. Many specific aspects of the low-observability process remain classified. The B-2's composite materials, special coatings and flying wing design, which reduces the number of leading edges, contribute to its stealth characteristics.
The Spirit has a radar signature of about 0.1 m2. They don't fly as low in real life as they do in Modern Warfare 2.

15 Killstreak

EMP (Electromagnetic pulse) refers to a blast of electromagnetic energy that, when released, disables any electrical system in the blast radius. An electromagnetic pulse weapon is a weapon, such as a missile or other combat device, that delivers this blast to its target. Discovered by accident as a side affect of a nuclear explosion. EMPs in modern times are specialized devices that disable all nearby electronics, and the range is determined by the height of detonation. . (higher the better)

Tactical Nuke

A a nuclear weapon which is designed to be used on a battlefield in military situations. This is as opposed to strategic nuclear weapons which are designed to menace large populations, to damage the enemy's ability to wage war, or for general deterrence. Tactical nuclear weapons were a large part of the peak nuclear weapons stockpile levels during the Cold War.

Great topic, thanked.

1 thing is they also have UAVS which are very small, like a remote control plane.
They throw these UAVS by hand and can then control them directly via a laptop and it sends back images of the battlefield from above, they can also be left uncontrolled to hover over a certain area or you can set a route which they will follow.

The ones in your pics, didn't look like those.

I tried to get the UAV's similar to the ones in MW2. As they are high up I couldn't see them well enough to establish which ones they could be, so I added the ones that look like it from the ground. I wrote about the other UAV's somewhere in there though.

if you watch this video from 2:20 onwards it shows a uav which is pretty close to the type on mw2.

As of what I can find, these don't exist in real life. In Modern warfare 2, the counter UAV is the same shape as a UAV. I'm not too sure, but UAV's could have a jamming system on board, but I'm only speculating. As I can not find much information on this, I'm also going to speculate that it could based off of radar jammers, but I am in no way sure.


There is a plane I'm sure some of you have seen it, not sure of the name but it is mostly remembered for it's huge radar on top of the plane. The crew can actually broadcast messages onto radio stations and tv sets wherever they fly over. They can also jam any radar tracking devices in the area. This is not in MW2 but yes you can jam enemy radar, just don't know if their radar shows all fuzzy grayness :P. Source is Discovery Channel on Youtube.

6 Kill streak is wrong, its suppose to be a F-15 "Eagle" for rangers, SEALs, TF 141, and a MiG-29 for Spetsnaz, OpFor, or Militia.

SWEET, this is cool to know about when your playing, you know think about the real thing when you use a killstreak.

Great thread. The ac130 in real life looks exactly the same as the one in mw2 when shooting. It's Appreciated that you took this much time to give us this information.
