This FAQ is for SOCOM U.S. Navy SEALs. You may not post this guide anywhere
or distribute this information as your own unless you ask me first and I say
you can. You can print this guide and use it for yourself. The walkthroughs
right now only show how to beat the mission enough to where you can move on

Weapons Database

On this part, I will just list all of the weapons and some stats.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tactics For Single Player
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--Don't let off
When you shoot at an enemy, do not stop shooting until you see them drop to
the ground. I myself have died a many of times due to this because I was in a
hurry. Take your time.
--Clear room Bravo
Before entering a room or house, it would be a good idea if you tell Bravo or
Able to clear the room. To do this, place your crosshairs over a door and
press the special commands button and it should be in the sections.
--Ambush
When playing some levels, I like to have Bravo lead the way by ambushing.
This causes them to make their way to whatever your crosshairs pointed to
while shooting anything they see. This helps a lot.

--There is always something to hide behind
All you have to do is look around. If you are a sniper, stay down low and
often use the prone stance. It helps a lot. If you just want to run and gun,
I am sure you can find some cover of some sort.
--Assault Teams spread out
I would recommend not going in packs because a sniper or heavy artillery
gunner could easily pick you off if you are close together. I say the tops
together at a time should be 3 to play it safe.
--Snipers have someone to cover them
Snipers always need someone to cover them and stay behind them since they
can't look behind themselves while looking at the guy they are aiming at.
This will cause fewer deaths most likely.
--Good hiding position for "Frostfire"
Go up the ladder that leads to the water towers next to the comp room2. Then,
jump up the big pipe that separates the lower platform from where you are.
Face the roof and move as close to the vertical bar coming out of the pipe as
you can. Put your crosshairs half way across the cross beam that goes from
the vertical bar to the pipe on the roof. Run forward and jog towards that
cross beam. You'll ride along that cross bar through the pipe (although it
may look like you go over it to some one else) and onto the roof 7. It takes
practice but it'll happen eventually. To get on the higher roof walk into the
pipe on your level. Then just walk forward towards the next level and you'll
automatically end up on the pipe. Next, just jump up there. This is a great
position.
Thanks to Boneshtmlcoder99 for strategy.
--Shootouts
The most important thing when you spot a group of baddies is getting cover.
If you round a corner and see them, immediately hit the floor or duck behind
something. Second thing you should do is communicate for backup. Often times
your teammates can help you out in a situation like this by getting around
the enemies to get you out from their side. Nothing beats surrounding a mob
because you communicated their location quickly and stayed alive. Most
situations like this can be solved by quick decisions. First off, know your
surroundings. if you are in the open (not too common, but each map has open
sections that are death if caught in) area, you have no choice but to fire it
out. Make sure you communicate first as you move, so people can come in for
help, and know where to go in the event of your death. When facing multiple
baddies, move and move often. Concentrate on one enemy, and fire in quick
bursts. Full auto will get you killed on the reload, even if you do take one
down. Always strafe, and keep your crosshairs on one enemy. Often times if
they were camping they will be sitting still and will have the advantage on
you (their aim will be better) so you have to move and become a hard target.
Fire off quick bursts, and reload when your enemy reloads. Try to strafe in
one direction, and if caught close enough, circle your enemy. If one is
stationary and another is moving, take the stationary one out first. Always
run towards cover, and put an object in front of you and the enemy. Higher
ground is always better, so aim for a good location. Never turn and run, you
will get shot easily. In some cases, I've run into a group of 2 or 3 guys
rounding a corner. Instead of getting flashy, I instantly strafed left for a
short short distance and proned while firing. They have to shift aim, and I
was able to put accurate bursts into 2 of them before the third was able to
put up a fight. In a situation when there is cover, get behind it instantly.
More than likely, your opponent is also looking for cover. Remember, if your
head is peeking out, even by a little bit, you can and will get shot. you
have to be fully covered. Someone on his or her team will most likely be
laying down cover fire, and another will be running to your location, or
prepping a grenade. Your best bet is to step back and wait for them while
under cover, or lay down some cover fire for yourself while help arrives. Try
not to risk standing up to run at them while firing, especially when alone.
If you can get out of their line of sight, prep your area with claymores. You
can throw grenades while crouched, and throw them while peeking out with left
or right on the D pad. Use grenades to flatten them, always throw more than
one, and not at the same exact spot. After the second explodes, peek out to
see if you flattened anyone, and fire while you can. If you have a partner,
try to have one person lay down cover fire, while the other maneuvers around
any way he can to get a shot off from a different angle. Don't forget to try
and flank. Grenades are your best friends in this situation, but watch for
incoming ones as well.

Mission 1: Death At Sea
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When you first start, tell Bravo to hold position. Then, go left and keep
going straight and walk around until you see the guards. Walk near them until
you are near the end of the line of crates. Wait until one of them leaves and
knife the one by himself and hurry and knife the other guy short after. Then,
walk forward and you will see 2 guys so kill them both. Now, make your way to
the ship by going up the stairs. Clear the entire outside of terrorists.
Then, make your way to the radio communications room. Shoot both guys in
there and then shoot the radios. Then, head down the stairs back to the main
part of the ship. Now, head to the lower half of the freighter. Take a left
and go down the second flight of stairs. Now, take a left at the intersection
you are at. Keep walking and enter the room on the right and collect the
intel. Now, go back into the hallway and pick off the guys that are close by.
Then, make your way to the point where you plant the satchels and place them,
and it should be mission complete.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission 2: Ghost Town
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, go straight a little but not too far. Just go up far enough to where
you can see the sentry. Kill him. Then go straight and you should see another
terrorist. Then, after you take him out, make your way over towards the
cabin. If the door is open to the cabin, the terrorist had left and gone
nearby. He is most likely behind a tree right by the cabin. Take him out and
go inside the cabin and objective complete. Then, make your way to the big
cabin. Go up to the door at the main entrance and ambush the guard in there.
Make sure you don't shoot Pincushion. Pincushion is wearing a red shirt so be
cautious of him. Then, restrain him, but don't tell him to follow just yet.
Now, make your way to the 2-story cabin. Kill everyone inside. Then, go to
the biggest building. This is where you get the laptop computer from inside.
Shoot the 2 terrorists by the stairs then make your way up the stairs and
shoot the terrorist there. Once that is done, you still have to go up another
flight of stairs. Right at the top of them is a terrorist so be ready for
him. Then, turn the corner and blast the guy by the computer and pick it up.
Now, make your way back to Pincushion. Be careful because the guard had
sounded the alarm and packs of terrorists are on their way to try to
intercept you and your fellow SEALs and kill you. Go back and get Pincushion
and get him to follow you to extraction point. Now, just go back and blow up
all of the weapons caches with c4. The weapons caches are the big piles of
crates next to the cabins.
When you first start, go forward and kill the two guards on the right. Then
follow your tacmap arrows to defuse the bombs (you can defuse 2 bombs at one
time by telling bravo team to defuse a bomb, and then you go and defuse the
other bomb yourself, and you can also tell able to defuse the third bomb (he
has no cover though). You can recon the snipers on the ledge you climb up and
then by looking at them through your scope, there is one on top of one of the
water towers and the other is on a catwalk from building A to a water tower
building, kill them. Go up the ramp into building B, tell able "ABLE FRAG AND
CLEAR" on the rooms with terrorists, this will tell able to throw a grenade
in the room. Do this often during this level. The hostages are in a small
room inside of the building next to the third bomb, the door says "authorized
personnel only" this is where the hostages are being held. The next group of
workers is in the same building as where the Iron brotherhood leader is (the
building near the helipad), so go in here and kill all the hostages and the
Iron brotherhood leader, now secure the hostages by telling bravo to hold
their position near them. Once that is done, go around the rest of the
platform and kill any remaining terrorists in the buildings A-E and the
helipad. This completes the level.
Thanks to Jsee for letting me use his strategy.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission 4: Golden Triangle Holiday
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, run straight until you get to the first bushes. Hide there until the
guard turns back around. When he does, run forward again to the next one and
then go to the island and get on it. Now, patrol the island and kill any guys
you see. After you have secured the island, run inside the hut and collect
the intel. Now go to point D and kill any terrorists in the area. Then, go to
point F and you will see the boats. Go up to them and put C4 on them by
selecting it from your weapons cache. Then, go up on the island and start
shooting everyone in sight and secure the island. Then, go in the 2 huts and
collect the bio-data. Then, go back to navigation point Zulu and you will be
extracted and mission complete.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission 5: Temple At Hohn Kaen
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is one of the harder missions in the game. For this, use an M4A1 and a
Mark 23 SD for all teammates. When you first start, tell Bravo to hold
position and team to hold fire. Go straight and turn the corner on the first
rock and kill the guy sitting there with stealth. Then, look straight and you
should see 2 guards. When one starts walking away, ambush the other one
staying still and hit him with your gun. Now go after the other guy. Then,
tell support to sweep the area. This should eliminate the guy walking up and
down on the other side of the river and the guy in a boat near the first hut.
Now, go up the trail until you get to the entrance of the temple. Make sure
you have everyone with you and fire at will on. Now, go right and there
should be a hidden passageway to enter the temple. Go in it and there will be
a guard outside so kill him. Then slowly make your way up the hill next to
you enough so you can see the snipers on the roof and shoot them. There is
sometimes 2 of them and sometimes 1 of them. Now, turn around and keep going
straight until you run into another guy so stealth kill him. Then, turn right
and go down the rest of the path killing everyone you see until you make it
to the next building. Go inside and take a right. Stand in the doorway and
look around and shoot anyone you see. Once you kill everyone, walk straight
and cross the bridge. After that, take a right and keep walking. You should
be able to turn left so look left and you should see 4 guys. Kill them all
and the flack is now secured. Now, walk up the steps on your left and take a
right and walk all the way down. You should see a sniper sitting on a
platform so take him out. Now, jump down and make your way to the
ambassador's wife and save her. Take her to the extraction zone and call for
support to pick her up. Now, make your way around and climb up the wall where
you could have entered. Now just go straight and take a left and keep going.
Now you should see a sniper on the top of a building and 2 terrorists. Pick
off the sniper first then the terrorists on the ground. Then just make your
way to the ambassador and save him and mission complete.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission 6: City Of The Forgotten
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the mission first starts, go forward until you get to the first hut.
Kill the 2 guys in the hut. Now, put on your night vision goggles and start
going straight. Keep on the right side of the bank and only shoot if someone
gets near you or sees you. Then, make your way to the next hut and tell Bravo
to ambush the whole time until you get to the stairway where you can go up
and there is a little campfire and stuff by it. Kill everyone around it. Then
turn left and keep going straight and take another left. You should be able
to go either right or straight. Look straight and shoot the terrorist there
then go right and keep walking. Enter the little cave thing and kill the 2
guys there then hurry and put on night vision again. Start exiting the little
cave thing and turn left and keep going straight and shoot anyone you see.
Then, take a right when you get to a dead end and keep going straight until
you get to the temple. Now, go up the stairs and crouch there and wait for
Bad Dog and company to try to escape and blast them all as they try. Then, go
get the bio stuff and then turn around. Go straight and take a left and go
down the stairs. There will be a green door there. You need to put a C4
there. Once it explodes, go inside and shoot everyone. Then go down the
stairs and shoot everyone. Then, go through the door and wait for the 2 guys
to rush up the stairs and shoot them too. Then, go down the stairs and shoot
anyone you see. Go up to the doorway and stand there and look to the right
because there will be terrorists there. Kill them and then go collect the
bioweapons and then just scan the whole temple and make sure you killed
everyone.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission 7: Mercenary Staging Area
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, go straight and pick off the few guys by the barrels. Then, walk
straight into the woods until you get to the point where you have to disable
the communications. When you get there, go inside the cabin and shoot the
radio. Now, go to the cabin across from the one you were just at and kill the
guy inside and pick up the intel. Now just make your way to the satchel sites
and place them. Be cautious of guys in guard towers though because they can
take you out fast. Once you placed both satchels, run and once you are far
away enough, the satchels will explode. Now you have to prevent enemy escape.
Just basically go around and kill anyone who you haven't already and mission
complete.
In the beginning, keep going straight until you see some guards walking.
Shoot them dead. Then, make your way up the path until you get to where you
killed those 2 terrorists. There should be 2 or 3 more waiting on you. Kill
them. Then, keep going up the path and look on a huge rock. There should be a
terrorist sniper up there so pick him off. Then, go up the mountain to your
right and there should be a sniper tower straight in front of you. You need
to shoot him before he sees you. Then, walk over to the edge and scan the
ground for terrorists. Shoot any you see. Then, slide down the mountain and
continue to go straight but be cautious of guys. You should get to a part
where you can turn right and there is a little hill and a sniper tower in the
background. There will be a tree on your left with a terrorist there so shoot
him. Then, shoot the terrorist in the guard tower. Now that he is unable to
pop you, keep going straight and until you cross the little stream of water.
Look on your left and there should be some rocks shaped like stairs. Climb up
them. Now, start walking right and stop when you can see a campgrounds thing.
Then, shoot any guard you see. Make your way to the edge of the hill until
you can just see into the campgrounds. There will be a terrorist by a POW.
Shoot the terrorist. Then just walk down the hill and make your way into the
camp and restrain that POW. Then, go into the cabin there and go down the
stairs and get that POW. Make sure they are both following. Then, go right
when getting out of the exit. Keep going straight. Just make your way to the
entrance of the caves and be cautious of terrorists because there will be a
few on the way. Now that you are at the cave entrance on the ground, go in.
Shoot any guards and make your way to the next POW in the cave. Restrain him
and go to the extraction point and mission complete.
At first, go straight and take out the guys on the bridge. Now, go straight
and shoot the few guys on the left on the ground. Then, keep going straight
and you should be circling a rock. Shoot the first guy you see and then go
down a little and shoot everyone behind a few wooden barriers. Then keep
going straight and turn right and keep going straight yet again. Basically
make your way to Bunker 1 and air strike it, then Bunker 2 and air strike it,
then 3 and air strike it. Then, go infiltrate the bunker by going to the
place on your tacmap. When you are inside, go straight and keep going until
you enter a room and kill everyone there. Then, just find the fuse boxes and
disarm them. Then, go and rescue the marine and mission complete.
You need to infiltrate the prison. Inside the prison you will find Mr.
Pickle. As you start of there are 2 enemies on the right side of the rock.
Take them out silently. Then, start walking forward. The next area goes into
the canyon where there will be another enemy in a dip in the ground. Then,
just keep going straight and go up the spiraled mountain. Keep walking up it
and you should see 2 enemies. Kill them. Then, make your way to the explosive
diversion point. Just make sure you shoot the guards in every tower along
your way. After placing the bomb, cautiously walk inside the hole in the
wall. Go straight but be looking along the roof of the building on your left
because there might be a terrorist up there. Keep going and turn the corner
and there should be a terrorist which you could rifle butt. Then just make
your way to the generator and turn it off. Now, start walking toward where
Pickle is being held captive. You should see the entrance to the prison on
your left as you go so shoot anyone still standing there if you haven't
already. Then, just make your way into the holding cell area where Pickle is
but there might be a terrorist in there so stay cautious. Release him. Now,
get him to the follow you and make your way to the armory. When you enter,
there will most likely be 2 terrorists waiting on you. Kill them. Then make
your way into the next room where there is also a terrorist on your left.
Kill him. Then, go up the stairs, and get the map. Then just run as fast as
you can to the extraction zone. If you encounter the hind, I suggest trying
to get your team to hold position with Pickle somewhere where there is cover
like in the armory or something. Then, just go outside and shoot it down.
Good luck.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission 11: Mouth Of The Beast
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is one of the toughest missions in the game. I suggest arming all
teammates with a machine gun, but more specifically, the M4A1-M203 with
Double Ammo, Explosive Rounds, and Frag Rounds. Now start the mission. Start
walking straight until you get near some shrubs by the opening. Put on your
night vision goggles then. Look around until you see 2 terrorists very close
nearby. Shoot them both then hurry and run straight until you see some shrubs
by the opening on your left. Crouch down there and shoot a frag grenade into
the part of the caves where the radio is. Now, hurry and look left and pick
off a guy behind a barrier. Then, search the perimeter for any guys you
haven't killed yet. Now, make your way up the stairs on the right but be
cautious of any terrorists lurking around at the top of the first flight of
stairs. Then turn right and make your way up the next. You should see the
opening of the cave. Crouch there and shoot once. This should draw attention
to you. Now, anywhere from 2 to 4 terrorists will just run out of the cave
like idiots. Shoot them dead. Now make your way inside. You should keep
walking for say 100 feet until you are at the entrance of the next 2 tunnels
(kind of like a 3-way road; either go right, left, or backwards). Stay there
and shoot once. This will cause some terrorists to run out of the tunnel on
your right. Shoot them. Then, after about 4 come out or they stop coming out
altogether, make your way right and outside of the first cave. Stop at the
exit of the cave and look at a big rock. There is a terrorist on it so shoot
a frag onto the rock and it will kill him. Now, make your way to the open
where you will see many cave entrances and etc. There is a entrance on the
ground near you and there should be 2 cliffs nearby with entrances to the
caves at the top of them. You need to shoot a grenade at both of them. Then,
make your way inside the cave. Right when you get there, there will be a few
guys waiting on you. Immediately shoot them and then look left into the next
room and kill that guy standing there. Then, go backwards and you should see
a tunnel going upwards. Go up it and make sure there is no terrorist there
because you can't have him surprising you by capping you in the back. Now
that you checked, make your way back the way you were going and keep going
straight. You should go up a slope. There will be a guy there behind some
crates on your left. Now, go down the tunnel but not too far because a guy
will come rushing out. Shoot him. Now, make your way to the vault. Shoot
numerous frags and explosive rounds into the vault. Then, make your way to
the nukes and secure and disarm them. After that, you need to make your way
back to the extraction point. I suggest picking up a dead soldier's AKS-47
for this part if you are low on ammo. Just go out the same way you came in
and shoot continuously. Good luck, you will need it.
I found this mission a little too easy. I suggest equipping yourself with an
M4A1-M203 with frag and explosive rounds. Equip everyone else with a heavy
sniper rifle. Now just run straight until you get to the 2-story building
where Kitten is. Shoot some explosive and/or frag rounds into the building.
This will take out some terrorists. Next, just make your way upstairs and
pump lead into anyone you see. After you kill him, make your way to the 3-
story building where Fat Cat is. Repeat the process of shooting frag and
explosive rounds into the building and make your way to Fat Cat and kill him.
Inside the buildings, you really don't have to worry about being ambushed
because there aren't really that many in the buildings. Just make sure you
have Team Follow and Team Fire At Will on at all times.
