FND Special Forces Flamer
Special Forces Flamers are walking fortresses that fire incendiary RPD rounds at range and switch to a flamethrower up close. Hit the fuel tank or bring armor-piercing rounds, because normal fire barely scratches them.
- Threat
- High
- Type
- Human
Good to know
- They still carry a fuel tank, but it is protected by extra armour.
- At range they fire an RPD loaded with incendiary rounds and throw incendiary grenades.
- They're much deadlier than regular Heavy Gunners, who can't set you on fire.
- Corporal Puente in The Battle of Esperanza wears a regular Flamer uniform but fights like this type.
- Insurgent leader Clarita Vargas is a Special Forces Flamer.
Behaviour
They are the tanks of the Special Forces. Expect a burning machine gun at range and a flamethrower if you let them get close.
How to beat them
Use armor-piercing rounds and aim for the fuel tank, or wear them down with explosives. Keep moving out of burning ground and fight them from a distance.
Where you meet them
Special Forces squads in later bases and the final assault on Esperanza.

FND Special Forces Assaulter
Special Forces Assaulters open with RPG-7 rockets at range, then close in with AK-47s and flashbangs. They are tougher than any regular FND rifleman, so bring armor-piercing ammo.

FND Special Forces Sniper
Special Forces Snipers shoot from long range like regular snipers, but they pull a sawed-off shotgun when you rush them. They also throw frags, which makes them some of the most dangerous FND soldiers.
