Nuclear Fuel Rods can be easily obtained by completing Secure Nuclear Material contracts across Al Mazrah, Ashika Island, and Vondel in Call of Duty DMZ. These contracts require players to search hidden caches to find radioactive materials and other items. You can find up to four Nuclear Fuel Rods from each Secure Materials contract in the game.

Secure Nuclear Material contracts spawn randomly across the map, and it's ideal to take up this mission in a remote area without enemy operators.

You can start a Secure Nuclear Materials contract by picking up the corresponding contract phone. Check the map image above to see how a Secure Nuclear Material contract phone looks in the game. You will notice it has a circular radioactive symbol, and these contracts can be found on Al Mazrah, Ashika Island, and the Vondel map. Once the mission starts, you need to get a Geiger Counter. This equipment allows you to scan an area to find hidden radioactive materials.

You must find open two hidden caches for each Secure Nuclear Materials contract. These are usually hidden in tricky spots, so follow the readings on your Geiger Counter. The reading will spike beyond 9.0 when you are close to a radioactive container. Open the hidden cache to collect the Nuclear Fuel Rods. Since you already have the Geiger Counter, head for another Secure Nuclear Materials contract nearby to collect more Fuel Rods. You can repeat this process to get all the Nuclear Fuel Materials required to complete the Upgrades.
