Modern Warfare 2 Fennec 45

The Fennec 45 remains a popular pick from the SMG category in Modern Warfare 2 despite its nerfs and all of the new weapons added to the game over the seasons, it has an extremely fast fire rate, and low TTK if you have the correct attachments and a meta loadout.

Season 4 of Modern Warfare 2 has begun, and the Fennec did not receive changes in this patch, so you can still count on it to do its job properly.

With a huge arsenal of guns available to choose from in the category, it can be difficult to pick out a winner from the bunch.

Well, one SMG that certainly stands out from the crowd is the Fennec 45 with its blisteringly fast-rate and lethal TTK at close quarters.

With a strong setup, the weapon can delete foes and offer an impressive amount of mobility. Luckily, we’ve got you covered with a meta loadout that’ll help you take over your matches.

Attachments

  • Laser: VLK LZR 7mW
  • Optic: Cronen Mini Pro
  • Rear Grip: Fennec Stippled Grip
  • Underbarrel: Phase-3 Grip
  • Stock: Agile Assault-7 Stock

For starters, you’ll want to equip the VLK LZR 7mW for increased accuracy. While you won’t be laser-beaming anyone at long-range with the Fennec, its low mag size makes it essential for you to land every single bullet at close quarters to maximize its TTK.

After that, make sure you utilize the Agile Assault-7 Stock, Fennec Stippled Grip, and Phase-3 Grip as these significantly enhance your mobility as well as add a little more stability to the loadout. All of these choices combine to offer a huge amount of speed while using the Fennec, on top of a quick ADS time so you can lock onto your enemies in an instant.

Finally, round off the class with the Cronen Mini Pro, an optic that will make it easy to land all your shots on target at close range.

  • Base Perk 1: Double Time
  • Base Perk 2: Battle Hardened
  • Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
  • Ultimate Perk: High Alert
  • Lethal: Flash Grenade
  • Tactical: Stim

Kick off your perk choices with Double Time as it will allow you to outmaneuver your opponents with ease, giving you the speed to clear out rooms and corridors in seconds.

After that, you’ll want to utilize Battle Harderend as a lot of enemies will attempt to thwart your pushes with stuns and flashes. This perk reduces the effects of lethal grenades, making it extremely difficult for foes to lock you down.

When it comes to your bonus perk, Fast Hands is a strong option as you want to be able to switch to your secondary quickly just in case your Fennec runs out of ammo.

For your Ultimate, we recommend High Alert as it ensures you’ll never be caught off-guard by pesky opponents. This will make it extremely difficult for enemies to lock you down and force opponents to take fights on your terms.

As for equipment, we recommend a Flash Grenade to aid you in your 1v1s and aggressive pushes, as well as a Stim for a boost of health when you need it most.
