SAT COM

The SAT COM is a 3-point streak (4-point in Support) featured in Call of Duty: Ghosts. It acts similarly to the UAV from previous titles, causing enemies to show up as a dot on the radar. Unlike the UAV, the SAT COM is a deployable ground equipment rather than an aircraft.

The SAT COM can be destroyed by either shooting it or knifing it.

The function of the SAT COM has different effects if there are more or fewer on the map.


 * If one is placed, it will only show enemies in the player's and allies' lines of sight.


 * If two are placed, they sweep the entire map to reveal enemies, like the UAV of previous games.


 * If three are placed, the map sweep will have an increased frequency, also similar to previous titles when multiple UAVs were active.


 * If four are placed, the map sweep will retain its increased frequency as well as show the direction enemies are facing, like the Advanced UAV or effect of having three UAVs active simultaneously in Modern Warfare 3.

Trivia

 * There is a perk in Call of Duty: Ghosts that will allow the player to access enemy SAT COMs as if they were his own. This perk is Wiretap.
 * The SAT COM's appearance resembles the logo of the UAV Recon in MW2 and 3.
