Modern Warfare killstreaks: Every killstreak available Call of Duty and when it unlocks

Scorestreaks are gone and Modern Warfare killstreaks are back in the franchise's latest. Unless you rock the Pointman perk, you can only earn that sweet Chopper Gunner or Gunship through kills instead of playing the objective. Call of Duty Modern Warfare has a plethora of killstreaks in the game, some of which are plucked straight from previous Call of Duty games, alongside other brand new ones. Here are all of the Modern Warfare killstreaks you can use and unlock, including a very special killstreak that fans of Modern Warfare 2 will love at the bottom.

If you're a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 veteran then worry not, because the Tactical Nuke also makes a return. It's not listed in the killstreaks section because you don't have to equip it to use one, you simply have to get 30 kills without dying, none of which can be via your other killstreaks, even if you've got Kill Chain enabled. Check out the tweet above to see what it looks like in-game.
