Signal Breaker is a Dynamic Op in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4’s DMZ mode. You collect three bomb parts, build the bomb and then wire it to three radar trucks. Most of it happens in the low-threat Imjin Farmland. One part sits in a safe inside Compound Alpha, which is a high-threat area, so plan for at least one real fight.
Quick answer: Activate the phone in Imjin Farmland’s white tunnel greenhouse, collect three bomb parts, craft the bomb at an office workbench, then plant it on three rooftop radar trucks.
Signal Breaker locations and objectives
The op runs through four objectives in a fixed order: Proceed to the Target Area, Collect the Bomb Parts 0/3, Craft Bomb and Plant Bomb 0/3. Here is where each stop sits on the map.
| Stop | Location | Threat | Interaction |
|---|---|---|---|
| Op phone | White tunnel greenhouse, Imjin Farmland | LOW | ACTIVATE |
| Bomb part 1 | Hidden Cache by a wrecked tank in the woods | LOW | Open the cache |
| Bomb part 2 | Two-storey house with walled courtyard, Imjin Farmland | LOW | Pick up |
| Bomb part 3 | Upper-floor safe, Compound Alpha | HIGH | Open the safe |
| Workbench | Low white office building with blue roof, Imjin Farmland | LOW | CRAFT BOMB |
| Radar trucks (3) | Rooftops around Imjin Farmland | LOW | PLANT BOMB |
The RADIATION COUNTDOWN doesn’t pause while you work through the op, so pick it up early in the deployment rather than near the end.
