Precision Airstrike

The Precision Airstrike is a multiplayer killstreak reward in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Requiring a killstreak of six (or five with Hardline), Precision Airstrike allows the player to call in a bombing run at the location of their choice. Unlike the Airstrike in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, the player also gets to choose which direction the jets come from, as in which direction the jets move in as they pass over. Bombs dropped by Precision Airstrike are effective at taking out groups of players, especially near spawn points. The Precision Airstrike is arguably most effective when used in the role of tactical defense of objectives. If playing 'Domination' for example you can call in your strike on your OWN control point to kill attackers. Inversely you can also call one in on the enemy CP to soften defenses for a quick 'Shock and Awe' style capture.

Trivia

 * Precision Airstrike is similar to its Call of Duty 4 5-killstreak reward counterpart except the bombing of the selected place is faster and you can choose which direction the planes flyby. It seems that the Precision Airstrike has a smaller damage area than its counterpart in Call of Duty 4.
 * The Spetznaz, OpFor, and Brazilian Militia use the MiG-29 Fighter, but the Navy SEALs, Task Force 141, and U.S. Army Rangers use the F-15E Strike Eagle when calling in an airstrike.
 * Like the previous 2 Call of Duty games this kind of killstreak works best when used in conjuction with UAV/Recon Plane.
 * They cannot be destroyed.
 * The cluster bombs are the same as the cluster bombs in Call of Duty 4.
 * The name "Precision Airstrike" can be misleading, as it suggests something more along the lines of a surgical strike, where it is in fact a wide-area cluster bombing run.
 * The area of effect of the airstrike is centered on the marker when it is called in, extending in front of and behind the marker in equal distance.
