To unlock the Iron Sights for the MCPR-300 you will need to Level it up to 26. You can also find someone who has the iron sights unlocked on it and ask them to drop you the weapon during deployment. Now, once you have the iron sights equipped, let us see how you can complete this mission.

  • Drop onto any map and use the MCPR-300 with the iron sights to kill 7 enemies. AI enemies count as kills as well so go on killing them and it should complete the first objective of the mission.
  • Ensure that you collect lots of money because you are going to need it later on in this playthrough.
  • Now, make your way over to any Workbench. You can usually find them situated next to Buy Stations. Now, equip a Hybrid Sight for the MCPR-300. It costs $2400.
  • Now get 7 AI or enemy kills with the Hybrid Sight equipped and that should be the end of the second objective.
  • Make your way to the same or some other Workbench and equip the Thermal Sight. It costs the same as the Hybrid Sight.
  • Now kill 7 enemies with the Thermal Sight and you should have completed the mission. A notification signaling the completion should appear on the screen.

If you are having trouble with the kills, we recommend playing with friends. They can also help you when you encounter enemy operators. That is all you need to know about the Reconnaissance by Fire DMZ mission in Warzone 2. If you liked this mission guide, perhaps you’d like some of our other ones.
