How to change loadout in Modern Warfare 3

If you're caught in the heat of battle in an Open Combat mission and could use a change of gear to suit your battle strategy, thankfully there's an easy way to do it on the run, as long as you know where to look.

Changing your loadout is a relatively simple process and requires that you search the buildings within the battlefield for a large square cargo box. For those who frequent Call of Duty Warzone, you'll be familiar with the box you need to find. Once you walk up to it, you'll be prompted to hit the indicated button to change your loadout.
