General weapons can be used by all Kits. These weapons are gained by either ranking up in multiplayer or having a high score in CO-OP. The main general weapons are shotguns, but there are also a few assault rifles and PDWs to unlock.
The M870 is an American made Pump-Action Shotgun that has been used by Special Forces units for decades. In urban environments the M870 is especially effective due to its high stopping power at close range. The ability to load different types of shells makes the M870 able to adapt to a wide variety of situations, while a narrow choke gives the M870 slightly more range than other shotguns.
Unlocked: Rank 1 Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Pump Action Ammo: 4 (12 Gauge) Range: Short Attachment Progression: Reflex, 12G Flechette, Extended Mag, Holographic, Tactical Light, 12G Frag, ACOG, Laser Sight, 12G Slug, IRNV, Rifle Scope, M145, Flash Supp., KOBRA, PKA-S, PSO-1, PKS-07, PK-A
Though chambered in the standard 9x19mm caliber, the PP-2000 is designed to use Russian overpressure rounds at high velocity to penetrate body armor. The high muzzle velocity of the PP-2000 gives it a flatter trajectory than other 9mm weapons, and its compact size make it ideal as a Personal Defense Weapon. When equipped with the 40 round extended magazine the PP-2000 also functions admirably in a CQB assault role.
Unlocked: Rank 7 Fire Mode: Auto, Single Rate of Fire: 600 Ammo: 20 (9x19mm Parabellum) Range: Short Attachment Progression: KOBRA, Laser Sight, Suppressor, PKA-S, Tactical Light, Extended Mag, PK-A, ACOG, Reflex, IRNV, Holographic, M145
German built, the UMP-45 is a fully automatic Personal Defense Weapon noted for its versatility and optimal mobility. Essentially an improved version of the MP5, the UMP-45 is functionally similar but substantially cheaper to manufacture and includes several modern upgrades such as the top and forward accessory rail. The UMP-45 is well-rounded and capable as a Personal Defense Weapon.
Unlocked: Rank 16 Fire Mode: Auto, Single, Burst Rate of Fire: 600 Ammo: 25 (.45ACP) Range: Short Attachment Progression: Reflex, Laser Sight, Suppressor, Holographic, Tactical Light, Flash Supp., M145, ACOG, KOBRA, IRNV, PKA-S, PK-A
An Italian Semi-Automatic Shotgun, delivered to USMC in 1999, the M1014 fires 12 gauge rounds without the need for the pump action seen on the M870. A reliable and versatile weapon, the M1014 is also equipped with a rail for the mounting of various accessories and an open choke that results in wide pellet spread.
Unlocked: Rank 22 Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Semi Auto Ammo: 4 (12 Gauge) Range: Short Attachment Progression: Reflex, 12G Flechette, Extended Mag, Holographic, Tactical Light, 12G Frag, ACOG, Laser Sight, 12G Slug, IRNV, Rifle Scope, M145, Flash Supp., KOBRA, PKA-S, PSO-1, PKS-07, PK-A
Developed as a Personal Defense Weapon, the PDW-R differs from most other PDW concepts by utilizing the standard 5.56mm NATO rounds of the M16 or M4. This allows the PDW-R to share magazines and supply lines with standard troops while its short length and bullpup configuration allow the PDW-R to be easily operated in CQB. Though it lacks the accuracy of a rifle, the PDW-R has a greater punch at longer ranges than other PDWs.
Unlocked: Rank 32 Fire Mode: Auto, Single Rate of Fire: 750 Ammo: 30 (5.56x45mm NATO) Range: Short Attachment Progression: Reflex, Laser Sight, Suppressor, Holographic, Tactical Light, Flash Supp., M145, ACOG, KOBRA, IRNV, PKA-S, PK-A
This Russian made magazine fed 12 gauge Shotgun is based on the proven AK-47 action and equipped with a folding stock.

The Saiga 12K is popular with Russian police and security services, and it is an effective close combat weapon with a wide pellet spread.
Unlocked: Rank 34 Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Semi Auto Ammo: 6 (12 Gauge) Range: Short Attachment Progression: KOBRA, 12G Flechette, Extended Mag, PKA-S, Tactical Light, 12G Frag, PSO-1, Laser Sight, 12G Slug, IRNV, PKS-07, PK-A, Flash Supp., Reflex, Holographic, ACOG, Rifle Scope, M145
A Battlefield 2 classic, originally developed in South Africa, the DAO-12 is essentially the combination of a revolver and a Shotgun. The fixed drum magazine is made of individual chambers, each holding a single round, which are fired only when placed in line with the barrel. A spring winding mechanism makes reloading an empty weapon a time consuming process and the short barrel results in a wide pellet spread.
Unlocked: Rank 38 Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Semi Auto Ammo: 12 (12 Gauge) Range: Short Attachment Progression: Reflex, Extended Mag, Holographic, Tactical Light, 12G Frag, ACOG, Laser Sight, 12G Slug, IRNV, Rifle Scope, M145, Flash Supp., KOBRA, PKA-S, PSO-1, PKS-07, PK-A
Developed in Belgium as a Personal Defense Weapon for vehicle crews, Special Forces and Counter-Terrorist groups the P90 is a compact and capable weapon system. The three forward rails allow an operator to mount a wide variety accessories and the 5.7x28mm special armor piercing ammunition is fired at nearly rifle velocity. Standard with a 50 round magazine the P90 is capable as an offensive CQB weapon for highly mobile personnel.
Unlocked: Rank 40 Fire Mode: Auto, single Rate of Fire: 900 Ammo: 50 (5.7x28mm) Range: Short Attachment Progression: Reflex, Laser Sight, Suppressor, Holographic, Tactical Light, Flash Supp., M145, ACOG, KOBRA, IRNV, PKA-S, PK-A
A South Korean produced Automatic Shotgun, the USAS-12 was specifically developed for the combat Shotgun role. Feeding from a box magazine, and capable of both Automatic and Semi-Automatic fire, the USAS-12’s high weight makes recoil manageable. The open choke results in a wide pellet spread.
Unlocked: Rank 43 Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: 300 Ammo: 6 (12 Gauge) Range: Short Attachment Progression: KOBRA, 12G Flechette, Extended Mag, PKA-S, Tactical Light, 12G Frag, PSO-1, Laser Sight, 12G Slug, IRNV, PKS-07, PK-A, Flash Supp., Reflex, Holographic, ACOG, Rifle Scope, M145
The AS VAL is an integrally suppressed Soviet designed Assault Rifle developed for use in the Spetsnaz. Chambered for a special high performance armor piercing 9x39mm round, the AS VAL includes mounts for using optical, red dot or even night vision scopes. The VAL is designed to be fired only with the suppressor attached, and therefore prevents the rifle from mounting underslung attachments.
Unlocked: Rank 45 Fire Mode: Auto, Single Rate of Fire: 900 Ammo: 30 (9x39mm) Range: Short Attachment Progression: PSO-1, Tactical Light, KOBRA, PKA-S, Laser Sight, IRNV, PKS-07, PK-A, ACOG, Reflex, Holographic, Rifle Scope, M145
Another contender for the newly developing PDW market the MP7 is currently in service with the German Bundeswehr and the Norwegian Armed Forces. The MP7A1 includes an improved stock, additional safeties, and added rails for mounting lights, lasers, and sights. The weapon is also capable of being suppressed, giving it excellent close combat stealth performance.
Unlocked: 189,000 CO-OP Score Fire Mode: Auto, Single Rate of Fire: 950 Ammo: 20 (4.6x30mm) Range: Short Attachment Progression: Reflex, Laser Sight, Suppressor, Holographic, Tactical Light, Flash Supp., M145, ACOG, KOBRA, IRNV, PKA-S, PK-A
General secondary weapons are sidearms for all Kits. The handguns include light fire pistols and powerful revolvers.
The M911 is one of the most popular pistols in the world. Adopted in 1911 for the US armed forces, the M1911 served as the primary side arm through to 1985. Many clones and copies of the M1911 exist, and the internal action is used in nearly all modern pistols. Modernized and updated versions of the M1911 is still in use by MEU(SOC) US Marine Corps Special Forces.
Unlocked: Default Veteran (Normal, Supp and Tact) Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Semi Auto Ammo: 9 (.45ACP) Range: Short Attachment Progression: None
Formally known as Pistol, Semiautomatic, 9mm, M9, the M9 was selected as the primary sidearm of the entire United States military in 1985. Developed in Italy, the M9 was selected in a series of often disputed trials, only narrowly beating out other contenders, because of its high quality and low price.
Unlocked: Defualt (Normal), Rank 10 (Tact), Rank 25 (Supp) Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Semi Auto Ammo: 15 (9x19mm Parabellum) Range: Short Attachment Progression: None
Designed to replace the dated PMM pistol, the MP443 Grach pistol was developed in 1993 and fires high powered armor-piercing 9mm Russian rounds. The pistol is a combined construction of polymers and steel and has been adopted by select Special Forces units in the Russian military.
Unlocked: Defualt (Normal), Rank 13 (Tact), Rank 28 (Supp) Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Semi Auto Ammo: 18 (9x19mm Parabellum) Range: Short Attachment Progression: None
The G17C pistol is part of a large series of pistols from an Austrian manufacturer. Chambered in 9mm, this full sized combat pistol features a polymer frame and anti-corrosion surfaces that make it incredibly reliable. The G17C is incredibly popular with both Police and Military units worldwide. This G17C has been equipped with an integral Laser Sight that makes unaimed fire more accurate.
Unlocked: Rank 4 (Normal), Rank 19 (Supp) Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Semi auto Ammo: 17 (9x19mm Parabellum) Range: Short Attachment Progression: None
Essentially an Automatic version of the G17C, the G18 was developed for the Austrian EKO Cobra counter-terrorist force. Classified as a Machine Pistol, the G18 has been equipped with a number of modifications to allow greater control over its very rapid fire. Regardless, the G18 in Automatic is incredibly difficult to fire effectively at anything other than extremely short ranges.
Unlocked: Rank 30 Fire Mode: Auto, Single Rate of Fire: 1100 Ammo: 20 (9x19mm Parabellum) Range: Short Attachment Progression: None
A .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, this particular model features a ported barrel, a compact frame for easy carry, and of course, a round that will blow your head clean off. The .44 Magnum is the most powerful available side arm, but the recoil and weight of the weapon makes fast follow up shots extremely difficult.
Unlocked: Rank 36 (Normal), Rank 44 (Scoped) Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Semi Auto Ammo: 6 (.44 Magnum) Range: Short Attachment Progression: None
Developed for export in Russia (REX stands for Revolver for Export), the MP443 is a compact .357 Magnum handgun with an interesting tilt open and auto extraction design. While not as powerful as the .44 Magnum, the .357 Magnum round from the MP412 offers excellent stopping power and the compact package offers a slightly higher rate of accurate fire.
Unlocked: 63,000 CO-OP Score Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Semi Auto Ammo: 6 (.357 Magnum) Range: Short Attachment Progression: None

The Assault Kit has access to a diverse array of assault rifles that offer long range damage. The Assault Kit can heal teammates by dropping med packs or reviving with the defibrillator.
The Assault is the most versatile class from it's access to long range weapons. You could help support teammates with the Suppressive Specialization, make a mad dash across the field with Sprint, or turn into a human turret with Ammo.
For suppressive fire we tend to go with the rapid firing F2000. We also favor speed for close range action and wield the AS VAL in these situations. You should also pick a side arm that counter balances your main weapon. For example the quick G18 is nice for close range shotguns, while the .44 Magnum will help someone with a long range assault rifle.
Of course one of the Assault's main advantages is the use of medical kits. If you're traveling with your squad, let the Engineers or Support take on the enemy while you distribute healing. Your side will always be better off with a fully healed team. A good medic will also allow teammates to shrug off getting hit once or twice.
The 3rd generation of M16A3 has been upgraded with a RIS (Rail Interface System) for mounting accessories and is capable of Automatic and Semi-Automatic fire. Available to front line units engaged in urban combat, the M16A3's low recoil makes a capable all around weapon.

Unlocked: 38,000 Assault Score Fire Mode: Single Rate of Fire: Semi Auto Ammo: 5 (12 Gauge) Range: Short Attachment Progression: None
The AEK-917 was developed as a possible successor to the AK-74 series of Assault Rifles and features a unique recoil reduction system. The AEK-971’s high rate of fire makes it excellent in close quarters but difficult to control. Shooters should switch to Semi-Automatic or 3 Round Burst for longer ranges.

The rifle is in use with a variety of Special Forces units including Pakistani, Peruvian, Chilean, Indian and Polish. It has also been adapted as the standard rifle of Saudi Arabia and Slovenia.

This Iranian developed Assault Rifle is essentially a bullpup conversion of the M16. The KH2002 is intended to replace the G3 in service with the Iranian armed forces, though there is speculation that it may be years before the rifle is ready for full deployment. The KH2002’s short length lends itself well to close combat, but prevents it from mounting any underslung weapons.
Unlocked: 126,000 CO-OP Score Fire Mode: Auto, Single, Burst Rate of Fire: 850 Ammo: 30 (5.56x45mm NATO) Range: Long Attachment Progression: PSO-1, Heavy Barrel, Foregrip, Tactical Light, KOBRA, Bipod, Suppressor, PKA-S, Laser Sight, IRNV, PKS-07, PK-A, Flash Supp., ACOG, Reflex, Holographic, Rifle Scope, M145

Multiple versions of the G3 exist, and it has been used in countries around the world, including Sweden where it was known as the AK4. This particular G3 is the A3 variant, with a fixed stock. The long barrel and firing heavy 7.62x51mm NATO round enable the G3A3 to reach out at longer ranges than most other Assault Rifles, but at the cost of heavy recoil.
Unlocked: 441,000 CO-OP Score Fire Mode: Auto, Single Rate of Fire: 500 Ammo: 20 (7.62x51mm NATO) Range: Long Attachment Progression: ACOG, Heavy Barrel, Foregrip, Tactical Light, Reflex, Bipod, Suppressor, Holographic, Laser Sight, IRNV, Rifle Scope, M145, Flash Supp., PSO-1, KOBRA, PK-S, PKS-07, PK-A
The Engineer Kit uses medium range machineguns and carbines. They can also take down vehicles with the use of rocket launchers. Sometimes it's better to only disable a vehicle, as an Engineer can repair the damage and steal an enemy ride. We go into more details under the Ground Vehicle section.
The Engineer's main job is all about taking down enemy vehicles, so stick with the Explosive Specialization. The SMAW and RPG-7V2 are ideal as you'll mostly be against ground vehicles. The FIN-92 Stinger and SA-18 IGLA are passable for taking on air vehicles, but most of the time it's just easier to get in an anti-air vehicle or man one of the grounded missile launchers.
Since you're going to end up a giant target for enemy fire, you might want to change your Specialization to Cover to avoid being disorientated or get the hell out with Sprint Specialization. As for main weapons, we tend to favor the medium range guns specific to the Engineer kit. However, if you feel like getting in close the DAO-12 is amazing for such a job.

The Support Kit uses automatic rifles and machineguns at medium range. This Kit doesn't need to worry about ammo, as they can throw down ammo boxes that can be used by the team. The Support Kit is a master of placing down explosives ranging from C4 and Claymore mines.
With the Support's focus on machineguns we like to pair them with the Suppressive Specialization. Using this you don't have to be completely accurate, instead you can spray bullets in the general direction of a foe and disable them. This will leave them extremely vulnerable to additional fire from your allies.
On the other hand you can create an ideal sapper with use of the Explosive Specialization. We prefer C4 over Claymores due to their remote detonation, but both are excitable. You will have to monitor when an enemy is near your C4, but the satisfaction of destroying battle tanks with the push of a button is worth it. Because you'll be getting in close to enemy vehicles and the soldiers protecting them, we prefer wielding a close range PP-2000 or DAO-12.
The RPK-74M is an improved version of the original RPK developed in the 1950s.

The M240 is a General Purpose Machine Gun (GPMG) that was first developed in Belgium and adopted by the USMC in 1991. The M60 was replaced first by the M240G, and subsequently by the M240B which provides commonality between the Marines and the US Army.

The Recon Kit uses long range semi auto and bolt action sniper rifles. Unlike other Kits, Recon doesn't have a starting gadget but will unlock the SOFLAM and MAV to help track targets.
We prefer to make use of two different builds: the classic sniper, and a speedy scout. The sniper of course makes use of one of the many rifles and gains some extra protection from the cover specialization. Your role is to camp in the back and take down Engineers or Support soldiers that are trying to destroy friendly vehicles; with your long range scope also be sure to tag any enemy you see. Keep a magnum on you to take out any close by enemies, as your rifle isn't ideal for close quarters.
Of course you'll also wind up in many sniper vs sniper fights. In these cases take cover behind any nearby wall and quickly pop out to land a head shot. You could stay prone for better aim, but this can leave you a sitting duck for counter attacks. Alternately there is the option of standing and sprinting away, but this is a double edged sword: you mobility makes you harder to hit, but you're overall a larger target. You can take these riskier options if you have support from the rest of your squad, but if you're on your own try to be defensive.
For our scout build we combine a shotgun with the sprint specialization. Your objective with this build is to get in close and take out enemies quickly. Also, since you are a Recon your other main task is to mark enemy locations with heavy use of your SOFLAM and/or MAV. Your quick speed and tagging capabilities will make you a key asset to any teammate flying a jet or chopper.
Designed as a squad support weapon, the SVD Dragunov enhances a squad’s ability by providing long range, rapid, accurate Semi-Automatic fire.

While it's nice to know about infantry, what makes a Battlefield game is its use of vehicles. Always be sure to get inside one of these armored beasts. It's an even bigger advantage to play as an Engineer as it becomes much easier to repair and steal vehicles. If your ride is damaged, pop a smoke and repair under concealment. As for enemy vehicles, don't out right destroy them. Instead, blast the vehicle only enough to disable it, lure out and kill the driver and repair it with your own torch.
If you're playing as a Support class, make use of your explosive claymores and C4. If your vehicle is disabled by an enemy engineer, toss down a mine underneath. When the enemy soldier climbs inside they will automatically blow sky-high.
But most important is to stop and allow other players to get inside the gunner seats. Any vehicle becomes much more powerful when two soldiers are able to blast heavy weapons in two different directions. Also, one person can jump out and repair the vehicle while the other provides coverfire. If for some reason you find yourself solo, always be sure to switch to the gunner's seat to help defend a position.
The LAV-25 (American) and BMP-2M (Russian) are IFVs. They are slightly faster than the main battle tanks but have less armor and less powerful weapons. IFVs should mainly be used to take on infantry and lighter armored vehicles. In most cases it's weak to the stronger battle tanks, but can combated with quick movement or superior numbers. The gunner passenger should concentrate on soldiers while the main driver disables other vehicles in the area.
The LAV-25 and BMP-2M share scores for unlocks, so you only need pilot one to outfit the other.
Unlock Progression: IR Smoke, ATGM Launcher, Belt Speed, Coaxial LMG, Thermal Optics, Prximity Scan, Zoom Optics, Maintenance, APFSDS-T Shell, Thermal Camo, Guided Missile, Reactive Armor
The M1 Abrams (American) and T-90A (Russian) are the main battle tanks for each side. They are heavily armored with extremely powerful main cannons. However, they are among the slowest vehicles. The best use of the main battle tank is to take out IFVs and anti-air vehicles. It's slow speed makes it harder to take on fast infantry, but it's quite possible. Often it's better to not bother with direct fire and instead kill enemies with area splash damage. The main cannon's fire is strong enough to destroy most walls and kill the foes cowering behind them.
Overall the main thing to look out for are sneaky enemy Engineers and Support classes that will try and disable your tank with explosives. A good gunner should quickly tackle any of these threats, leaving the pilot to destroy stronger vehicles.
Unlock Progression: IR Smoke, Coaxial Lmg, Autoloader, Zoom Optics, Maintenance, Coaxial HMG, Proximity Scan, Guided Shell, Thermal Optics, Thermal Camo, Canister Shell, Reactive Armor, City Station
The LAV-AD (American) and 9K22 Tunguska-M (Russian) are the anti-air vehicles. As the name implies these are the vehicles for taking on enemy helicopters and jets. You should always start with your homing rockets as the air vehicles will attempt to get away. As the rockets cool down, switch to the powerful machineguns to finish off the enemy. These machineguns are strong enough to deal with enemy soldier and even lightly armored vehicles. If you are up against a battle tank, it's best to book it as your guns aren't a good match with the tank's heavy shields.
Unlock Progression: IR Smoke, Anti-Air Missile, Belt Speed, Zoom Optics, Proximity Scan, Thermal Optics, Air Radar, Maintenance, Thermal Camo, Reactive Armor

Helicopters and planes are much tougher to control than ground vehicles. It's best to try out flying in co-op or smaller servers (Mainly completely empty ones). It will hinder your team if you jump in a whirly bird, only to crash seconds later.
As with land vehicles, it's nice to take an Engineer for repairs. However, it is likely that you'll take too much damage while flying and will have to make a crash landing. If you can time it correctly, ram into an enemy location while you parachute out at the last second.
Helicopters do not accelerate; they only go up or down. To move forward you will have to completely pitch the entire vehicle. This can make it a bit difficult to move and fire accurately at the same time. This makes it important to always pick up a few allied gunners to keep you covered. You'll eventually also gain flares to disrupt rockets, but those are for seasoned pilots.
The AH-6J Little Bird and Z-11W are Scouting helicopters. They are slightly faster than attack helicopters, but not as heavily armed. They also have less unlockable options. Mainly use these little guys for transportation, spotting and taking on infantry.
Unlock Progression: IR Smoke, Heat Seekers, Stealth, Belt Speed, Proximity Scan, Air Radar, Extinguisher, Maintenance, Guided Missile, Below Radar, Laser Painter, ECM Jammer
The AH-1Z Viper and MI-28 Havoc are better built for taking on heavy ground vehicles and combating weaker air vehicles. It can be hard at first to take on speedy Flankers and Hornets, but eventually gain guided and heat seeking missiles to take on these enemies.
Attack helicopters control the same as scout helicopters, but have different unlockables.
Unlock Progression: IR Smoke, Heat Seekers, Stealth, Autoloader, Zoom Optics, Proximity Scan, Air Radar, Guided Missile, Extinguisher, Maintenance, Thermal Optics, Laser Painter, Below Radar, ECM Jammer, Guided Rocket, TV Missile
As with helicopters, practice flying planes before taking them out in a fight. Mainly get the hang of turning via rolling to the side and pitching slightly. Use deceleration to make sharp turns, and let go of the throttle once you have plenty of momentum. And of course, spot any enemy you see to rack up points. You are a sitting duck until you get a large enough score for anti-missile flares.
There are two types of jets at your disposal: air-to-ground A-10 Thunderbolts and SU-25TM Frogfoot, and air-to-air F/A-18E Super Hornet and SU-35BM Flanker-E. While each has default weapons better suited for different enemies, whith unlocks they can be great for all situations. Your main objective should always be to take out slower helicopters, followed by hulking tanks. Of course enemy planes will always be on your tail so be sure to get evasive. You can dodge most locked on missiles by flying to extremely high altitudes.
Unlock Progression: IR Smoke, Heat Seekers, Stealth, Belt Speed, Proximity Scan, Rocket Pods, Air Radar, Extinguisher, Below Radar, Maintenance, Guided Missile, Beam Scanning, ECM Jammer
