In Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer, the excitement continues with the introduction of MW2 Season 5, which arrived with brand-new weapons. The Fennec 45 is among the most popular SMGs in the game, primarily because of its incredibly fast fire rate and destructive capabilities at close quarters. While the gun has been subject to some nerfs during its run in Modern Warfare 2, it can still be a formidable force if fitted with the right attachments.

Best Modern Warfare 2 Fennec 45 loadout attachments

  • Stock: Agile Assault-7 Stock
  • Underbarrel: Phase-3 Grip
  • Optic: Cronen Mini Pro
  • Laser: VLK LZR 7MW
  • Magazine: Fennec Mag 45

Our best Fennec 45 loadout in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 begins with the Agile Assault-7 Stock as it’s perfect for adding a lot of movement speed as well as good Aim Down Sight speed.

The Cronen Mini Pro sight is an optional luxury if you’re not a fan of iron sights, but it’s clean as anything. Whereas the VLK LZR 7MW nails down some extra mobility with increased sprint-to-fire and ADS speeds.

The Fennec Mag 45 is a natural extension of the gun’s OG magazine as we want a bit extra in the tank, especially as the gun can chew through a mag in the blink of an eye.

Finally, the Phase-3 Grip is a useful attachment for offering some added control with aiming idle stability, hip fire accuracy, and recoil stabilization.

  • Base Perk 2: Battle Hardened
  • Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
  • Ultimate Perk: Ghost
  • Lethal Equipment: Semtex
  • Tactical Equipment: Proximity Mine
  • Field Upgrade: Dead Silence

Our best Perks for Modern Warfare 2’s Fennec 45 SMG start with Tracker as this allows us to speed around the map and pick up the trail of stray enemies to take down unawares. On the other hand, Battle Hardened is useful for staving off the endless supply of discombobulating Flash Grenades that will inevitably come your way.

Fast Hands means we can quickly swap out our empty Fennec 45 mags and Ghost is perfect for keeping you off the radar and UAVs.

A Semtex Lethal can help you pick up a cheeky kill if there’s a group of enemies up ahead, and a Proximity Mine is ideal for any pursuing foes and objective-based game modes.

To round things off, Dead Silence is the best Field Upgrade for this Fennec 45 as it makes you a silent assassin in MW2.
