- — In-game description
The Dreadnought is a Scorestreak featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
Functioning like the prior gunships in the series, the Dreadnought has access to three primary modes of weapons. A dual set of Rocket Pods housing a total of 16 rockets split between the two, a Dual Barrel Cannon that houses 8 rounds, and a Gatling Gun with 40 rounds of ammo. After expending their load, these weapons will go into a short reload period with the cooldowns dependent on the weapon itself. Upon completion of the run, either by time or manually canceling, the onboard crew will drop the Daisy Cutter bomb into the map. This bomb will drop in slowly via parachute and home into a nearby target, exploding on impact. It can, however, be destroyed by sustained gunfire to be destroyed prematurely in the air.
Trivia[]
- Upon entrance, the view switches to the copilot nodding to the pilot before opening the back door of the aircraft, before looking into the headset in front of him. When fuel expires, the copilot goes to the back of the aircraft, releasing the bomb and watching it go before leaving. When destroyed, one pilot will be killed with stray gunfire, and the Daisy Cutter bomb will unlatch inside of the loading bay, detonating prematurely and destroying the Dreadnought.
- A plate inside the cockpit labels the Dreadnought as "manufactured by AIRCRAFT COMPANY".
- There is a box out of bounds of every map that supports the Dreadnought, housing the vehicle's model and a background where first-person cinematics take place.
- Uniquely, a box for this purpose is placed outside of Warhead although it is unusable.
