WARDOGS Devilfish Drone Guide — When a $5,000 Missile Makes Sense

Published 2026-09-15Updated 2026-09-193 min read

The Devilfish launcher: 900 parts and $5,000 per shot. What it's for, how the FPV flight works, and why you only fire at high-value targets.

Build it, pay for it, aim it — the most expensive bullet in WARDOGS.

The Devilfish is a buildable suicide-drone launcher: an emplacement you construct at your FOB, loaded per shot. Each launch burns 900 machine parts and $5,000 — the price of two Rocket launchers for a single munition.

What Deserves a Devilfish

At that cost, the target list is short and strict: high-value enemy equipment only. Enemy self-propelled artillery like the SPH, a dug-in tank, a fortification cluster that's bleeding your team. Firing it at infantry is lighting money on fire — only a kill on something more expensive than $5,000 plus 900 parts pays the bill back.

Firing Sequence

  1. Build the Devilfish launcher at your FOB (heavy construction, so bring the right hammer — see the FOB building guide).
  2. Feed it the 900 parts and the $5,000, then take the seat.
  3. Your view switches to the drone's FPV camera as it climbs. Enemy equipment is tagged in the feed.
  4. Search from altitude, line up the target, lock, and hold Left Shift to accelerate into it.
  5. Watch the battery gauge — the drone has limited flight time, so don't spend it sightseeing.

If you whiff, the money is gone. If you hit armor, you've traded a drone launcher load for a vehicle worth ten times the kit — the best trade available to a defensive team.
