How do you unlock the AUG?

The AUG unlocks at Multiplayer Level 5 in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019). It fills the mobile close-range primary role in the Submachine Guns catalog. Its fully automatic rhythm defines when to commit, reset and move. This guide avoids patch-sensitive damage and time-to-kill numbers. Its camo track finishes at Lichyard (Complete Skulls tier 10 on that weapon using three-kill streaks without dying; thresholds are weapon- and class-adjusted). Complete every camo challenge on it and Gold unlocks. Earn Gold on every camo-eligible launch weapon required in its category for Platinum. Complete the required base-game class mastery route to earn Damascus.

How does the AUG play in Modern Warfare (2019)?

Rolemobile close-range primary
Real-world basisModern Warfare (2019) in-game weapon; no unsupported real-world equivalence is asserted.
StrengthsThe AUG has a clear mobile close-range primary identity; Its fully automatic rhythm defines when to commit, reset and move
TradeoffsThe fully automatic timing still has to match the route and cover; A poor approach can erase the intended advantage of this submachine guns entry
Useful setupPrioritize ready speed and readable close tracking; Use cover and movement to shorten the route before taking the fight
Challenge noteComplete all ten camo categories on this weapon to earn Gold. As an original launch weapon, it counts toward the base-game Platinum and Damascus route.
Progression tipGold is earned per weapon, Platinum covers the original weapons in one class, Damascus covers all original launch classes, and Obsidian is a separate post-Gold weapon grind.
Camo tipUse the AUG from a route that gives its fully automatic action time to work, then move before repeating the same angle.
Compared withCompare it with the P90 in the same class: both occupy mobile close-range primary space, but the AUG's fully automatic timing needs its own route.

AUG — common questions

How do you unlock the AUG in Modern Warfare (2019)?

The AUG unlocks at Level 5 in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019) multiplayer. The level cap is 55, and prestige is the launch progression used Enlisted Ranks through Level 55 and seasonal Officer Ranks instead of the classic reset-based Prestige loop.

How do you unlock camos on the AUG?

Camo progress is per-weapon. Modern Warfare (2019) uses ten per-weapon category ladders: Spray Paint, Woodland, Digital, Dragon, Splinter, Topo, Tiger, Stripes, Reptile and Skulls. Category objectives and thresholds are adjusted for specialist classes. Completing all ten sets earns Gold. CDL, C.O.D.E., partner and community camos are not prerequisites for Gold, Platinum, Damascus or Obsidian. On the AUG the final tier is Lichyard — Complete Skulls tier 10 on that weapon using three-kill streaks without dying; thresholds are weapon- and class-adjusted. After that, Gold needs every camo challenge on the weapon done, and Platinum needs Gold on every camo-eligible launch weapon required in its category, and Damascus requires mastery across the base-game weapon classes.
