Air Strike (Battle Royale)

The Air Strike is a Throwable item in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It was introduced in Season 9.

Functionality
When thrown, the air strike would mark a location, and play loud siren noises to warn players of the upcoming strike. After this, 20 missiles will rain down from the sky in quick succession, damaging players and structures.

Obtained
Air Strikes can be obtained from Chests, and in Supply Drops. They drop in stacks of 1.

Stats
The Air Strike deals 75 damage per missile, with 8 seconds of duration, and 20 missiles launched.

Strategy Guide

 * The Air Strike can be used to deal high damage in a build fight, as the missiles will not only attack players, but also destroy their cover.
 * Players can easily avoid the air strike with either movement items (such as a Shockwave Grenade) or simply sprinting out of the area, as it takes a few seconds for the missiles to deploy.

Season 9

 * Content Update 3 v9.30: Introduced the Air Strike in Rarity.

Season X

 * Update v10.00: Vaulted the Air Strike.

Chapter 2: Season 3

 * Update v13.20: Patched an issue with the Air Strike in which missiles did not land in the targeted location. The item is still Vaulted.

Trivia

 * The Air Strike only existed for less than three weeks in game, and is yet to exist outside of Limited Time Modes since its inclusion.
 * It is very similar to the Air Strike ability in Save the World, except with a throwable item and a larger, and slower explosion period.
