Template:Infobox/soldier Suicide Bombers are an enemy featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Their only appearance is in Survival Mode.
Overview
Suicide Bombers will start to spawn during rounds 5-10 (depending on the map). When they are shot, the two C4 charges on their back will automatically become armed and detonate in a couple of seconds. Mortally wounding or killing one will result in a red glow from their bodies, meaning that their C4 is active. Killing one of them will give the player 150 points. They carry USAS 12s and are easily recognizable by their partially orange or blue outfit. They have low health, taking one knife to kill. If the player knifes a bomber while carrying a USAS-12 the bomber will drop far more ammo (several magazines worth). Other than that, they only have two rounds in the gun regardless of how many they have fired, following a trend consisting that enemy forces only have 1/3 of a magazine in their gun when killed. If a player survives to a high enough round, they can be seen working with every kind of enemy except for lightly armed militia.
Suicide Bombers tend to rush the player and usually don't take any cover. Suicide Bombers work directly with Claymore Experts, and will attempt to cover them more consistently than other units. Activating the bombs on their vests will automatically cause their allies to run away, allowing a player to lock down an area for a few seconds if they down or kill one of them in a doorway or choke point. Suicide bombers also tend to take cover on higher rounds, but only so they can get close to shoot the player.
Suicide Bombers are also seen in the form of dogs, although they work differently, as they behave just like a regular dog, but with C4 on them.
Suicide Bombers are seen on late rounds in tier one maps, and early rounds in tier two, three and four maps. Later on, Suicide Bombers will have what appears to be Extended Mags and a form of Rapid Fire on their weapons, as they will occasionally fire at a much faster pace than a normal USAS 12 can fire at, which will use more ammo than normal, to provide suppressing fire on the player.
Suicide Bombers are strictly a rush-and-kill unit, not taking cover except later on during higher rounds such as in the 30+ range for tier one maps, and as early as 15+ on tier two, three and four maps.
