In Call of Duty DMZ, you can upgrade your Operators by expanding the Wallet, Keys, and Contraband Stash. However, to get these upgrades you must find certain items — like AQ Laptops, which are required to complete the Wallet Expansion 3 for the Crown faction — by exploring the different maps. Here's how you can get the rare AQ Laptop item easily in DMZ.
Where to Find AQ Laptops in DMZ
Unlike the Konni Laptop, Shadow Company Laptop, or regular Laptops that are found abundantly across all the maps, AQ Laptops are extremely rare. So far, Koschei Complex is the only viable location I have found to get AQ Laptops. The Wallet Expansion 3 in DMZ requires you to find and extract five AQ Laptops. I recommend visiting the Koschei Complex —specifically from the Rohan Oil entrance — to get this rare item quickly.
The Rohan Oil entrance to Koschei Complex leads you directly to the External Ops chamber where you can find several AQ Laptops. You will find them as ground loot, inside caches, locked rooms, and containers. Search every nook and corner of the Koschei Complex to find this rare laptop. You can also try the City Parking or Taraq Village entrance to get into rooms where you'll find the AQ Laptops.

Once you have this item, call down the Extraction Elevator from the Chemical Plant. Keep in mind this elevator takes around 60 seconds to exfil, so you need to fend off the AI forces until then. Be careful inside the Koschei Complex as enemy operators are also present in this area. If you get eliminated with the AQ Laptop, it won't count as mission progress, and you'll need to redo the process again.
