Headwind is the fourth mission you can complete in Modern Warfare's Spec Ops mode. The objective of this mission is to infiltrate the airport of Verdansk to take control of the diverted 747 and to recover its cargo.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare: Operation Crosswind Walkthrough

Here is the complete objective list for Operation Crosswind:

  • Disrupting enemy communications: the army on the rooftop
  • Disrupting enemy communications: main terminal
  • Infiltrate the plane
  • Recover the nuclear core
  • Escape

 

Respawn system

Make sure one of your team members has selected the Medic role. The Medic can revive the entire team thanks to its field upgrade.

Disrupt enemy communications: rooftops

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare

Head towards the roof of the airport to distupt enemy communications. Once the process is underway, defend the position from enemies that attempt to stop the disruption.

Once complete, head inside to repeat the process inside the terminal.

Disrupt enemy communications: terminal

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare

You can wait above the disruption point to give yourself a better vantage point while waiting for the process to complete. Don't waste too much time dealing with the juggernaut as you will be moving quickly out of the airport to begin the assault on the plane.

Infiltrate the plane

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare

Use a vehicle to cross the airport runway, avoiding a wave of enemies trying to halt your progress. You have five minutes to make it to the plane so there is no real rush but the quicker you move, the less likely you will be taken out by an enemy.

Recover the nuclear core

Now inside the plane, your team has three minutes to retrieve the nuclear core.

The trick here is to keep moving so you do not get pinned down by any heavy resistance. Use your stun and frag grenades to negotiate any enemies that are hindering your progress.

Once upstairs, head upstairs and have two teammates on either side. Make your way up towards the cabin, fully utilising cover to your advantage to deal with the opposition. With all visible enemies eliminated, move up towards the breach point but be very aware of the juggernaut hiding behind it.

It is possible to lead the juggernaut out of the room so you can move past him, minimising any time lost. Head towards the stairs leading down and take out the enemies hiding behind some cover and push towards the reactor. Open up the container and grab the core.

Escape

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare

To escape the plane, head towards the room with the red lights. When here, another juggernaut will emerge but you are able to run around him like the other one earlier in the mission. 

Push towards the far end of the plane into the exit room with a few seconds to spare. When inside the room, you will skydive to safety to end the mission.
