The Assault kit is featured in Battlefield 3, functioning nearly identical to its Battlefield 2142 counterpart; a combination of the Battlefield 2 Assault and Medic. The Assault is equipped with an assault rifle or an all-kit weapon, with the default weapons varying by faction.
The USMC Assault wields an M16A3 and an M9, whereas the RGF Assault wields the AK-74M and MP443.
The kit is initially equipped only with the medkit, but can quickly unlock other gadgets and weapons; the first unlock for the kit is the Defibrillator, which are the only option for the second equipment slot.
However, the medkit must be swapped out if the player wishes to wield either of the two underslung weapons, the M320 (or GP30 if equipped as an underslung attachment on one of the Russian-made weapons) or the M26 MASS.
Advantages[]
- They make the difference between victory and defeat with the ability to revive teammates.
- Their assault rifles are useful in a variety of general purpose combat engagements. They can be equipped with a wide range of attachments to improve their usefulness.
Limitations[]
- They are unable to affect enemy armour and vehicles.
- They are vulnerable at close range if combat involves a shotgun-wielding enemy or one with an SMG. They are also open to long-range counterattack if there is an enemy sniper.
- They cannot suppress enemies nor can they resupply ammo.
Trivia[]
- The USMC Assault wears long sleeves from a third-person perspective. Although, from a first-person perspective, they're rolled-up much like the other classes.
- The US Aftermath model seen on Battlelog is holding an ACW-R, despite being exclusive to the Engineer class.
- The US Assault in Battlefield 3's Beta is Caucasian and in the retail version is African American. The player's first-person view still showed white arms until the 1.04 patch.
- The US Assault has an unusable G17C in a holster on his chest similar to Steve Campo.
