You can unlock the ISO 45 SMG in both Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 by either extracting the weapon from DMZ or completing an unlock challenge that requires players to get 45 Operator kills without taking any damage using SMGs.

Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer is definitely the best place to complete this challenge, and you’ll likely get these 45 kills extremely fast in smaller maps like Shipment and Shoothouse. Or, if you’re a DMZ player, unlocking the weapon is pretty straightforward, as you only need to complete an extraction with it.

The ISO 45 is a returning weapon that appeared in Modern Warfare 2019 and the original Warzone. The devs claim that the “ISO 45 functions similarly to the old ISO, known for its lightweight design and decent fire rate for short- to midrange engagements.”

While it deals more damage-per-bullet than the other fast-firing SMGs, they say you’ll need to “get those shots on target” to find success. Definitely make sure you unlock this weapon if you’re looking for a new SMG to add to your arsenal.
