Juggernaut Recon

Juggernaut Recon is an 18-point Support Strike Chain in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.

This strike chain airdrops a Care Package containing enhanced Juggernaut armor that comes equipped with a Riot Shield, a USP .45 handgun, and a Smoke Grenade. The players cannot pick up any other weapon on the ground and will instantly equip the armor after taking the package. Players wearing this armor will have enhanced damage resistance, and will also allow the user to act as a mobile Portable Radar that detects enemies in a waving pattern. Juggernauts will appear on everyone's radar as a diamond with a dot in the middle, which is updated in real time. Additionally, the player is given the perks Scavenger, Assassin and SitRep. Players will receive the benefits of the pro perk if they have unlocked it.

The Juggernaut armor significantly slows the player down, but gives the player five times health that also regenerates when not taking damage. This means that the suit will never break, assuming the player recovers before sustaining lethal damage. Contrary to popular belief, players with Juggernaut Recon AND Assault Juggernauts can jump, sprint and prone (although they cannot prone with holding a riot shield). Juggernauts are extremely susceptible to Concussion Grenades and Flashbangs, and a direct impact from a Predator Missile will kill any Juggernaut instantly. Killing a Juggernaut will only give players the normal kill or assist XP.

Trivia

 * If the player picks up a Tactical Insertion with Juggernaut Recon, their smoke grenade will be replaced with a Portable Radar and a Tactical Insertion, strangely though, it shows that they have two Portable Radars.
 * Picking up Scavenger packs will count towards the player's Scavenger challenges
