Black Tuesday

"Black Tuesday" is a level in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. This level starts on Day 2 - 10:18:08. The player takes control of Derek "Frost" Westbrook, a Delta Force operator in New York. So far, information indicates that the mission will involve a heavy firefight at the New York Stock Exchange, followed by a helicopter duel down Wall Street.

Gameplay
In the beginning, Sgt. Derek "Frost" Westbrook and Sandman get out of a Humvee which has been attacked and destroyed. As they get out of the Humvee, they engage the enemy troops along the streets of Manhattan, pushing the enemies back with the aid of a Stryker. As they are about to reach a junction of the street, they meet up with another Stryker along with friendly U.S. Army troops.

Later on in the mission, Frost, Sandman and other friendly U.S. forces get ambushed by an enemy Mi-24, forcing Sandman and Frost to circumnavigate the road block and enter another building.

As they reach the, they fight their way through the trade floor to a ladder to the roof. Using thermite, Frost destroys the radio jammer on the roof, restoring radio communications to friendly forces.

Frost uses a Reaper to kill the enemy troops, and destroy an enemy gunship that was supporting them. A Black Hawk then comes in to extract Frost and Sandman, and the player mans a minigun as they escape from Wall Street and engage with multiple enemy helicopters. Frost succeeds in destroying all enemy helicopters, but the last one collides with the Black Hawk, forcing it out of control and making Frost nearly fall out. They finally take back control of the helicopter and return to base.

Trivia

 * The name of the mission is a reference to the Wall Street Crash of 1929 also known as "The Black Tuesday".
 * The date of this level is May 13, 2016, as reported by the TV, where a news program similar to CNN displays the title "BATTLE FOR NEW YORK - America's last stand?"
 * The date of the mission; May 13, 2016 will actually be a Friday, which would make it Friday the 13th. This is a obvious reference to the famous horror film "Friday the 13th"
 * At the beginning the brief text does show the title of mission, day, time, faction and place, but it doesn't show the player's character name as other missions do, probably due to the fact the game isn't complete.
