How to find and use Precision Air Strike in Fortnite

The Precision Air Strike is one of the deadliest items ever added in Fortnite, and it can obliterate a point of interest with your enemies at just a single click. 

Fortnite’s latest Shock ‘N Awesome season is swarming everyone with bugs all over the island, and you have many firepower options to keep them in check. But if it gets overwhelming, you have the Precision Air Strike item to completely wipe an area out of existence in a second, taking down bugs along with the enemies without giving them a chance to fight back. If you want to get your hands on the Precision Air Strike, we’ve got you covered. 

How to find Precision Air Strike in Fortnite

You can find the Precision Air Strike inside the O.X.R. Drop Pods in Fortnite, which drop at your location once you level up your rank. I found one inside one after reaching rank A, but you can also find it in higher-level drop pods because it’s a legendary item. If you can’t wait until the late game to get your hands on the item, consider heading down to any of the four O.X.R. Bunkers on the map, where it is available for purchase. 

You can also stock up on legendary and exotic weapons from these bunkers by spending your gold to give you that edge in your fights.

How to use Precision Air Strike in Fortnite

The Precision Air Strike is most effective when used near points of interest, where dense structures limit enemy movement. Once activated, the weapon marks the target area with red targeting lasers, followed shortly by a devastating aerial barrage that obliterates everything within the zone: bugs, opponents, and buildings alike.

While the brief delay between targeting and impact gives alert enemies a chance to flee, those caught indoors or too slow to react have little chance of survival. This makes the Precision Air Strike a powerful tool for securing easy eliminations and controlling high-traffic areas during matches. It is also used in smaller circles to stop enemies from rotating to the safe zones.

As it’s very powerful, the item only has one charge, so you have to use it wisely at the right time to take down buildings and clear out spaces. There is also a weekly quest, which requires you to destroy 25 objects to get 20,000 XP, and you can easily complete it if you aim it correctly at a point of interest.
