Your guide to Objective 4: Destroy the enemy artillery guns. Learn how to plant explosives, take out MG42 gunners, and secure the objective in Call of Duty 2026.

Alright, this next objective is all about taking out some heavy artillery. We need to get in there, plant some explosives, and get out before things get too hot. Don't worry, I'll walk you through it step-by-step.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First up, you'll need to run through that trench. Your main goal here is to plant explosives on the first artillery gun. Once that's done, get clear but stay close enough to see what happens. You'll notice a section of the trench gets blown out, which is our new path into the field.
  2. 2
    Head towards the tree and lean out. You'll see a bunch of enemies. Take out as many as you can from here, then lob a grenade towards the trench where the rest are holed up.
  3. 3
    Once they're all down, move into the trench and plant your explosives on the Artillery Gun. Keep moving deeper into the trench and take out any enemies you encounter until you spot the next Artillery Gun.
  4. 4
    When you can see the second gun, stop and crouch. You need to take out the soldiers around it. Then, carefully move along the trench wall until you can see the MG42 gunner. This guy is dangerous, so you need to take him out quickly – a headshot is best. If you don't, he'll shred you.
  5. 5
    Plant the explosives on this gun and then hop over the trench wall. Move across the field, taking out the two enemies you'll see on your way.
  6. 6
    As you enter the barn, you'll spot two German soldiers inside, to the left. Shoot them quickly and then move out through one of the doors. You'll see more Germans popping up over a stone wall. Use grenades or your Thompson to clear them out.
  7. 7
    Now, head into the building and deal with the German soldier just inside the door. Find the stairs going up and pause right at the top, just peeking your head out. Wait for two more German soldiers to come into view and take them out.
  8. 8
    Head into the room they came from. Grab the documents and any health you might need from the closet.
  9. 9
    Next, you'll need to man the MG42 yourself. Take down all the enemy soldiers that are approaching. Make absolutely sure there are no enemies left before heading back downstairs.
  10. 10
    Pause at the newly opened door and switch to a rifle. There's an MG42 gunner up in a window to the left of the door. You need to pop out quickly and shoot him before he can get you. This might take a few tries, so don't be afraid to use F5 to quicksave. Once he's down, head out into the courtyard with your sub-machine gun.
  11. 11
    Use your sub-machine gun to clear out all the enemies in the courtyard to your left. Once they're all dealt with, you can move around the building however you like. You'll see the final Artillery Gun. Take out its operators and any other Germans around it. There are quite a few, so stay alert. Plant the explosives on this last gun, and you'll be done with this objective.
Tips
  • The MG42 gunners can be tough. Don't rush them; use cover and take your shots when you have a clear line of sight. Quicksaving before engaging them is a good idea.
  • When clearing out groups of enemies, use grenades effectively to soften them up before you move in with your primary weapon.
  • Always check for health packs, especially after intense firefights.
