How do you like your UAVs in the morning? Advanced? Scrapped? Nope, scrambled. The perfect UAV is scrambled, and Call of Duty serves up some well-seasoned killstreaks in Season 2.

In a bid to combat the aggressive players in Warzone 2, the devs first reduced the number of UAV killstreaks that can be bought at a buy station, in comparison to the first battle royale.

Now, they've gone one step further by rolling out a Counter UAV into Al Mazrah and Ashika Island.

As Season 2 rumbles forward, Counter UAVs will now be available to use in Warzone 2. They'll serve as the perfect defence against players who have become accustomed to popping the reckon-heavy feature to sniff out unaware enemies.

The streak will jam every enemy's radar in the game, including their minimap and HUD, making it a very effective streak to find.

If you want to get full use of this Killstreak, you're told to listen out for the audio cues from the Warzone 2 announcer, who will make nearby Operators aware that a UAV has been used.

How To Get A Counter UAV In Warzone 2

Much like the standard UAV, the Counter UAV can be acquired through two methods in Warzone 2. The first method is by heading to a Buy Station, where the Counter UAV will be an option to purchase from the "Gear" section, costing $4,000.

Luckier players who like to rely on RNG will also find Counter UAVs as floor loot, appearing on the ground and in loot caches like crates and duffel bags.

You'll want to be quite savvy with your use of Counter UAVs, though, as rivals on the map will likely be quite aggrieved at having their minimap scrambled, and they can be shot down almost instantaneously. So, it's worth waiting until the last minute to cloud your enemies' judgement.
