Reactor is one of the official missions in Modern Warfare 3 (2023) and is the third mission in the campaign. In the mission, you find yourself in the aftermath of Operation 627 and the Precious Cargo missions. It consists of a team of Soap, Gaz, Ghost, and Captain Price as they embark on a hazardous mission involving parachuting and intense combat. The mission will reward the player with a "Corso Operator" once completed.
In the Reactor mission, the team's objective is to take down three Makarov's Konni Group helicopters. You eliminate the nearest helicopter using your preferred method, like RPGs or explosives. The second helicopter can be dealt with similarly, and then you face the more challenging third helicopter, which patrols the skies. After handling these aerial threats, you proceed to the reactor following Laswell's guidance.
Once inside, you lose communication with Laswell, and a helicopter drops enemy soldiers and chemical weapons onto the reactor. Act swiftly to stop the chemical weapons from floating away. Unfortunately, toxic gas fills the reactor, and you must fend off enemies to escape. Heading upward helps avoid gas damage. After dealing with most threats, you grab a yellow rope to ascend to safety. The mission ends with Captain Price collapsing due to gas exposure.
The characters in Reactor are John ‘Soap’ MacTavish, Kyle ‘Gaz’ Garrick, Simon ‘Ghost’ Riley, Kate Laswell, and Captain John Price.
