What is Hijacked IFF Strobe in MW3?
Imagine a wearable device that scrambles enemy AI’s perception, making you appear as a friendly unit. That’s the gist of the Hijacked IFF Strobe, a gear perk in MW3 Multiplayer.
IFF stands for “Identification Friend or Foe,” a real-life technology that transmits a signal to identify allies.
Modern Warfare 3 takes this concept and injects a dose of deception. By “hijacking” an enemy IFF signal, the Strobe disrupts how automated defenses like turrets and enemy AI target you.

Then, you need to complete five Armory Unlock challenges, which can be accomplished by finishing daily and bonus challenges.
The Hijacked IFF Strobe in Modern Warfare 3 can be a powerful tool in the right hands, but it requires a specific approach to maximize its effectiveness.
Objective-based modes such as Hardpoint and Domination often involve capturing points heavily guarded by automated turrets. The Strobe lets you take and hold positions with minimal resistance from AI.
If you favor flanking maneuvers, the Strobe can help you bypass enemy AI patrols and reach strategic positions unseen.
To maximize the potential of this perk, pair it with a suppressor to further minimize your detection risk from human players while flanking.
