Willy Pete

The Pete loves dicks(phonetic for Phosphorus launching device) is a Tactical Grenade, featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops.

Overview
The Willy Pete is a Smoke Grenade, which emits a large smokescreen for roughly 8-9 seconds. Willy Pete is slang for White Phosphorous, which releases waxy particles which burn at 5000 degrees, causing horrendous burns. In Call of Duty, however, White Phosphorous grenades barely cause any damage and are used strictly for screening.

Single Player
The Willy Pete is used as a signal for friendlies to place attacks, such as the Artillery in Project Nova. It also is the special grenade in Executive Order.

Multiplayer
In Multiplayer, the Willy Pete is a Tactical Grenade, and is available as soon as Create-A-Class is unlocked at level 4. It causes a small amount of damage to enemies near its detonation, but does not prolongingly harm players as it is emitting smoke. The Willy Pete is often replaced by another Tactical grenade, as there are more useful options. However, it is useful in time-capture objectives (Domination, Demolition, Search & Destroy, Headquarters). This is useful if trying to flank, as throwing one might focus their view on the smoke making it easier to flank from the side or behind. It is also useful if being pursued one can throw it and then run the opposite direction, as the enemies are drawn to the smoke. Willy Pete is the only Tactical Grenade that does not receive an extra grenade when using Warlord Pro.

Tips & Tactics

 * Crosshairs will still turn red (unless the enemy is using Ghost Pro) if they sweep over enemies hiding inside the smoke screen. This is a good method for finding and killing "hidden" enemies.
 * Tossing a Semtex or cooked Frag into a smokescreen is a good way to take out enemies using a Willy Pete for cover while taking an objective.
 * Flashbangs, Nova Gas, and Concussion grenades are also useful. If a player is using Tactical Mask Pro they can even pinpoint exactly where the enemy is, despite the smokescreen.
