All three of the schematics for the Dead Wire Detonators, Golden Mask Filter, and The Sergeant's Beret can be found as possible rewards for completing contracts in the Third Dark Aether Zone. The Third Dark Aether Rift is located at the E4 coordinates of the Urzikstan map. It's just near the exfil location for the Union mission.

To unlock the Third Dark Aether Rift you'll need to complete the Union mission first, get all four easter eggs, one of which is the Giraffe Toy, and upgrade them to gold rarity (the Giraffe Toy is already upgraded).

Then, place them, and permanent entry into the Third Dark Aether Zone will be unlocked. You will be able to enter the Third Dark Aether Zone and complete contracts to get the three schematics as possible rewards.

The Dead Wire Detonators schematics add the Dead Wire ammo effect to your explosive weapons, including Launchers and Lethals. This would be particularly useful when you're up against the new Disciple variants in the Dark Aether as well as regular hordes of zombies.

The Golden Mask Filter helps your gas mask regenerate by itself. This is particularly useful when going into Aether Nests and Infected Strongholds around Urzikstan. Your current mask will still break if you fully use its charge. So, you will have to find another mask and apply the filter again.

The third and final schematic is the Sergeant's Beret Schematic which is more unique compared to the other two before. This one disguises you as a mercenary soldier and you will also have an ally soldier who will act as your Bodyguard and assist you in encounters.
