The F2000, referred to as FN2000 in the game files, is a bullpup assault rifle featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and in Call of Duty Online. It was cut from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Campaign
In the campaign, the F2000 is seen used by the FSB in "No Russian", and is found with a Thermal Scope in the levels "Estate Takedown", "Wetwork", "Armor Piercing", "The Enemy of My Enemy", "The Only Easy Day... Was Yesterday", and "Loose Ends". In the campaign, it has two different types of Red Dot Sights. One version of the weapon, the F2000 Scoped, uses the standard F2000 telescopic sight. The second, the F2000 Red Dot Sight, uses the regular Red Dot Sight. The F2000 in the campaign has very low recoil but roughly the same rate of fire as the ACR, making it essentially an ACR clone in the campaign. The multiplayer counterpart has a noticeable increase in RoF and more recoil.
The F2000 is unlocked at level 60, with a high rate of fire, low damage, and moderate recoil. For these reasons, it is best used for close and medium range combat, where it is more than a match for other ARs and rivals many SMGs in effectiveness. However, it is fairly uncommon online due to the combination of its late unlock level and its poor accuracy at longer ranges due to its very high recoil compared to other assault rifles.
It deals 30 damage at close and medium range unsuppressed, and 20 at long range. Medium range damage is reduced to 20 when suppressed. It kills in four-five hits without Stopping Power, and three-four with it. The silencer is a popular choice on the F2000, as the severe muzzle flash is completely negated, and makes staying on target with automatic fire much easier.
It has the highest rate of fire of all automatic assault rifles in the game, and this makes it a very powerful choice of weapon in close quarters, being capable of besting even SMG users. Due to its aforementioned recoil, inexperienced users will often find it difficult to kill anyone beyond medium range while firing full-auto. Those familiar with the weapon will instinctively fire in 2 or 3 round bursts, or control for recoil by pulling downwards with their mouse or controller.
2 round bursts are most effective, as you only need 4 hits to kill at long range with the F2000, so long as you have stopping power equipped.
In Hardcore, the weapon kills in one-two hits on targets in normal circumstances, which is the same as most other 30-20 damage assault rifles. The very high rate of fire of the F2000 means hipfire is highly effective, and thus makes Steady Aim a popular perk to use in both Core and Hardcore.
The F2000 is similar to the TAR-21 in that it has a unique Red Dot Sight - the F2000 utilizes a special Telescopic Sight simply referred to as "Scope". It is a large cylindrical sight that has the added benefit of being non-reflective, allowing one to see through high light exposure without glare (such as when firing from within a dark building into brightly lit areas) and, unlike the TAR-21's Mars sight, is not affected by EMPs; however, it has a darker tinted sight-glass and a thicker outer frame which some dislike, and is less popular than the unscoped variants or when equipped with a Holographic Sight.
Despite it being so disliked, the darker tinted sight-glass of the rail-scope helps reduce the effects of the muzzle flash, and can help stay on target with automatic fire. Longer range scopes, such as the ACOG Scope and Thermal Scope, cause the weapon to kick more violently with each shot, and render it highly ineffective at any distance besides close range. The F2000 has a very long reload time in comparison with other assault rifles, but given that it works very well with reload canceling, it makes Sleight of Hand not a necessity.

Trivia
- The multiplayer emblem for the F2000 labels it as the "FN F2000".
- The HUD icon shows the Rail scope attached to the weapon. The icon also lacks a magazine.
- In the Create-a-Class icon, the trigger section isn't displayed, moving the front hand guard to the back.
- While reloading, the player can see the FN Herstal logo by the side of the weapon behind the trigger.
- The gun's serial number is "025960," the same serial number as the FMG9.
- When picking up an F2000 w/ heartbeat sensor, there doesn't appear to be an alternate charging animation as is the case with the SCAR-H w/ hearbeat sensor, and instead the player's hand will blatantly clip through the sensor as the F2000 is charged.
- In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, if viewed in first-person with a field of view changer, it is possible to see more engravings on the F2000 when reloading: "FN HERSTAL BELGIUM FS2000 cal 5.56 x 45". The engravings appear to continue but cannot be seen without increasing the field of view to a level considered cheating. There are also smaller, more difficult to make out engravings just beneath of the aforementioned ones.
