Who are the Delta Force operators? The multiplayer experience in Team Jade’s reimagining of Delta Force Black Hawk Down takes its cues from extraction shooter mainstays, spliced with the specialist-based class system seen in the likes of Battlefield 2042. As such, you can gain the upper hand on your future opponents just by learning about the specialists in the rebooted shooter.
There are nine Delta Force operators as of Season 2. Each operator falls under one of four positions: Assault, Engineer, Recon, or Support. While these positions indicate what each of the FPS game characters excel at, the real meat is in an operator’s kit. Alongside a character-specific trait, each operator has unique tactical gear and two gadgets that can be used out in the field. To find out more about each of the Delta Force operators and what they’re packing as you prepare for the Delta Force release date, read on.
All Delta Force operators
The nine Delta Force operators are:
D-Wolf (Kai Silva) – Assault
A highly decorated operative, Kai ‘D-Wolf’ Silva is a one-man wolf pack. His Motorized Exoskeleton dramatically bolsters his mobility, allowing him to zoom across the battlefield. What’s more, he can also slide, making him a go-to for Call of Duty veterans looking to cut their teeth with a more familiar play style.
- Position – Assault: Faster aiming movement speed. Can use the AT4 rocket launcher in Havoc Warfare mode.
- Trait – Tactical Slide: Allows you to perform Tactical Slides.
- Tactical Gear – Motorized Exoskeleton: Overloads D-Wolf’s exoskeleton, gaining sprint speed and increased rate of fire. Duration can be extended by knocking down enemies, which also recovers health and stamina.
- Gadget 1 – Triple Blaster: A hand-mounted triple grenade launcher. Grenades can attach to vehicles.
- Gadget 2 – Smoke Grenade: A smoke that doesn’t last as long as other smokes, but deploys much quicker.
Vyron (Wang Yuhao) – Assault
Unlocked via Recruit Check-in challenges on day three.
A former fighter pilot, Wang ‘Vyron’ Yuhao is quick to spot trouble. His Dynamic Auxiliary System offers up directional propulsion, granting him the means to quickly readjust position during a firefight, or approach from a different angle. If Vyron’s flown too far, this trait ensures he has a safe landing, even when falling from great heights.
- Position – Assault: Faster aiming movement speed. Can use the AT4 rocket launcher in Havoc Warfare mode.
- Trait – Dynamic Auxiliary System: Becomes overcharged while falling from a height, minimizing fall damage. Also grants a boost to movement speed. Using tactical gear and gadgets also increases your speed.
- Tactical Gear – QLL32 Crouching Tiger: Grenade launcher that fires compressed air rounds that knock down enemies.
- Gadget 1 – Dynamic Propulsion: Propels you in the desired direction. Its cooldown can be reduced by knocking down enemies.
- Gadget 2 – Magnetic Bomb: Throws a time bomb that can attach to walls and vehicles.
Stinger (Roy Smee) – Support
Having served in the special forces support department, Roy ‘Stinger’ Smee is a medical maestro that can use his smokes as an AoE healing field – an innovative combination of utility.
- Position – Support: Revives downed allies faster than other classes. Can use ammo crates in Havoc Warfare mode.
- Trait – Quick Rescue: Grants a downed ally more health when reviving.
- Tactical Gear – Hive-Tech Pistol: Healing pistol that can heal multiple allied operators at the same time while locked on, also has the ability to self-heal. Grants immunity during healing.
- Gadget 1 – Smokescreen: Launches a UAV that disperses a smoke wall as it flies. It can be controlled mid-flight.
- Gadget 2 – Hive-Tech Smoke Grenade: A multipurpose smoke grenade. Shoot it with the Hive-Tech Pistol to turn it into a healing smoke, though it will increase visibility within the smoke.
Toxik (Zoya Pomchenkova) – Support
The smart and determined Zoya Pomchenkova has a history in technical research, hence her remarkable “Dragonfly” Swarm System. That doesn’t mean she’s not just as – if not more – keen to get knee-deep in combat with her comrades though, and both her and her latest research projects are focused on supporting her squadmates from right at their side.
- Position – Support: Revives downed allies faster than other classes. Can use ammo crates in Havoc Warfare mode.
- Trait – Swift Healing: Reduces the time it takes for nearby squadmates to use consumables in Operations mode. In Warfare mode, Swift Healing reduces the time it takes for teammates to start healing after being injured.
- Tactical Gear – “Dragonfly” Swarm System: Sends a swarm of UAVs, temporarily buffing allies in their path with adrenaline while impairing the vision of enemies in their path and reducing their maximum HP.
- Gadget 1 – Adreno-Boost: Deploys a UAV to enhance nearby allies’ handling and reduce their hit flinch. Allies who score a kill or assist while impacted by Adreno-Boost receive a stronger boost next time.
- Gadget 2 – Blinding Gas Grenade: Blinds enemies within its area of effect.
Hackclaw (Mai Xiaowen) – Recon
Unlocked via G.T.I. Resupply event at 500 XP.
Mai ‘Hackclaw’ Xiaowen is a recon operator who specializes in intel gathering and subterfuge. While her Silent Step trait isn’t the most helpful in a chaotic firefight, the rest of her kit more than makes up for it. Between her Flash Drone and Data Knife, Hawkclaw has the means to control the flow of battle. If visibility’s poor, her Signal Decoder will help you keep track of enemies.
- Position – Recon: Can access the radio to recon the map. Can use Respawn Beacons in Havoc Warfare mode.
- Trait – Silent Step: Walking and crouching are faster and make less noise.
- Tactical Gear – Signal Decoder: Periodically scans for up to three enemy signals. The signal closest to you will be displayed in red.
- Gadget 1 – Flash Drone: Deploys a drone that flashes all enemies within range. Drone can be sent along the signal lines made by the Signal Decoder.
- Gadget 2 – Data Knife: Throws a Data Knife that briefly disables electronic devices on impact. Hitting enemies deals significant damage.
Luna (Luna Kim) – Recon
If professional archer and ex-intelligence officer Luna ‘Luna’ Kim wasn’t a recon operator, we’d be shocked, almost as shocked as someone taking one of her Volt Arrows to the knee. Thanks to her Hunter’s Mark trait, you won’t have to frag to be a useful asset to her team, as damaging enemies will mark their location for your team to finish off the kill. Teamwork makes the dream work.
- Position – Recon: Can access the radio to recon the map. Can use Respawn Beacons in Havoc Warfare mode.
- Trait – Hunter’s Mark: Damaging enemies marks them for a short duration, making them visible to teammates.

Shepherd (Terry Mursa) – Engineer
They say the best offense is a great defense, and Terry ‘Shepherd’ Mursa encapsulates this ideology. His Sonic Defense trait reduces the damage taken from explosions – always handy when there are tanks around. However, Shepherd’s sonic-based kit isn’t only good for survival, as his Sonic Trap and Sonic Paralysis drone can effectively neutralize enemy combatants.
- Position – Engineer: Gains a welding gun that can cut through wired fences, repair vehicles, and construct defenses. Can use the AT4 and Stinger rocket launchers in Havoc Warfare mode.
- Trait – Sonic Defense: Uses a hand-mounted device to generate anti-phase sound waves, reducing damage from explosions.
- Tactical Gear – Sonic Paralysis: Deploys a sonic drone that paralyzes the enemy, reducing their rate of fire and movement speed.

- Gadget 2 – Frag Grenade: Defensive grenade that deals area-of-effect damage.
Uluru (David Feller) – Engineer
Unlocked via Operator Uluru challenges.
Charismatic engineer David ‘Uluru’ Feller is the tank of the group, and his abilities are best placed to both provide cover to your team and quickly destroy the cover of the enemy team. His Battle Hardened ability allows him to fight through slowness effects to attack unsuspecting enemies with his loitering munition, before throwing up Quickset cover for the rest of his team to recover behind.
- Position – Engineer: Gains a welding gun that can cut through wired fences, repair vehicles, and construct defenses. Can use the AT4 and Stinger rocket launchers in Havoc Warfare mode.
- Trait – Loitering Munition: fires an image-guided loitering munition after aiming. It splits into four bombs on impact. When hip-fired, the loitering munition will engage preset guidance.

Sineva (Alexei Petrov) – Engineer
Unlocked by reaching level 15 in the Starfall Battle Pass.
Human fortress Sineva is a master of push-pull tactics, making liberal use of his Grapple Gun to suck in unsuspecting foes before giving them a thorough beating with his deployable shield. The perfect crowd controller in tight chokeholds, Sineva can bunker down positions and provide peace of mind to his team.
- Position – Engineer: Gains a welding gun that can cut through wired fences, repair vehicles, and construct defenses. Can use the AT4 and Stinger rocket launchers in Havoc Warfare mode.
- Trait – Rear Guard: While unequipped, Sineva’s Blast Shield is mounted on his back, protecting him from shots from behind.
- Tactical Gear – Total Armor: Sineva equips a heavy vest that grants bullet and explosive damage reduction, and deploys his Blast Shield. Sineva can bash enemies with his shield, knocking them down, or bash throwables, deflecting them.
- Gadget 1 – Grapple Gun: Sineva fires a grappling hook that can pull enemies, including downed enemies, and items towards him.
- Gadget 2 – Razor Trap: Sineva throws a Razor Wire grenade, exploding on impact and deploying its payload. Enemies who pass through the Razor Wire make noise and take damage.
