The K9-Unit is so good it almost feels unfair to use it. As you can see in the picture above, the K9 will become available once you score enough kills to fill up the central meter. Once this vicious pooch is available, it may be the advantage you need to turn the tide of battle in your favor.

The K9-Unit is Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 specialist Nomad's most deadly weapon.

However you play Nomad, the specialist offers plentiful opportunities for you to make the game work for you. Use them wisely to come out on top.
