Whether you’re playing Warfare or Operations in Delta Force, a Recon operator plays a crucial role — by gathering intel and knowing enemy positioning, your team gets a huge advantage in different encounters and can act accordingly. Thus, with Hackclaw being one of the two in-game Recons, she’s largely considered a must-have in various team compositions.

Delta Force is a hardcore FPS experience that will require a lot of effort from you. Follow these friendly tips to get better as soon as possible.
Unlike Luna, the starter Recon, Hackclaw sacrifices range for accuracy, pinpointing almost every nearby enemy’s location thanks to her Signal Decoder ability. The rest of her kit, ranging from enhanced crouching to a throwable knife, makes it easier to kill those nearby targets. Of course, a solid foundation doesn’t guarantee victory, so an optimal loadout to complement her strengths is just as important as learning the character.
Best Loadout For Hackclaw
Given Hackclaw’s abilities, you’ll want to improve her mid-range and close-range prowess so she can eliminate nearby enemies one by one. As such, the most optimal weapon for her is definitely the SG552, one of the strongest Assault Rifles (or AR) in Delta Force.
Although it lacks the damage the other ARs have, you can turn this thing into a laser because of its immaculate control and synergistic corresponding attachments.

This loadout prioritizes gun control and ensures your bullets lock onto the target as long as you align your crosshairs. The M7 Practical Suppressor and Mini Hand Stop minimize all forms of horizontal recoil, which is a big problem with the base SG552 loadout.
In addition, the Knight Heavy Barrel unlocks rails and patches for deeper customization, and the attachments selected for these components, like the Ranger and DD Python Panels, purely improve control. The Shadow Rail and Phantom Rear Grips, on the other hand, focus on boosting handling, which, in turn, quickens your ADS speed.
As for the magazine, the 30-round mag is generally more than enough for one-on-one encounters. However, if you feel like you need more bullets, you can viably opt for the higher 45-round capacity, but its impact on the SG552’s stability certainly makes it the inferior option. Finally, the Advanced Thermal Fusion Holographic Sight is an ideal optic, especially with the way it accurately highlights threats.
Despite the Thermal Fusion’s uniqueness, the appropriate optic is mostly up to personal preference and which one suits your vision the most. So, it’s better to test out every close-range scope to find your forte, but make sure it doesn’t negatively affect your handling.
Moving onto the other equipment pieces, here’s what you’ll need:
- Secondary Weapon: Desert Eagle
- Melee Weapon: TAC Dagger
- Class Gadget: Respawn Beacon
The Desert Eagle is a complete powerhouse among pistols, and its accuracy combined with a quick time-to-kill pair extremely well with the SG552, even more than the popular 93R. As for the Class Gadget, you can pretty much use anything for Hackclaw, but since this is a Warfare-designed loadout, the Respawn Beacon’s versatility makes it a safe option.
