Canyon
Key Item: Lv3 key card
Deep Throat will warn you about the claymore mines in this area, so get out your mine detector. You'll see their position in your radar along with their lethal areas colored in yellow. Crawl up behind them to collect them for later use. There are four in the center, two in the right hand alley between the rocks and one in the left side. You won't be able to collect the one on the right without triggering the boss fight though. If you don't have the mine detector, you can spot the position of the claymores as red dots but you won't be able to see their blast radius. Just avoid the very center of the area and make your way to the top to trigger the boss fight.
Boss Fight - Tank
As always, equip the rations in your item slot. The tank can hurt you in three ways - getting hit by the main cannon, the gunner shooting you with the machine gun, or by running you over. You can avoid the main cannon by periodically tossing out chaff grenades. That confuses the tank's targeting system. Grenade and gun ammo is sprinkled liberally around the area. Pick some up if you start running dry on anything.
You can attack in one of two ways - the standard tactic is to lob grenades into the gunner's seat. It takes about three direct hits to take out each of the two gunners. An alternative way to do this mission is to whip out your FAMAS or SOCOM and attempt to shoot the gunners directly. The latter option seems to be a little more difficult, but it's definitely doable, especially if you make use of the metal pillar on the west side as cover. You can pop out from there to fire. Try to go for head shots on the gunner, as body shots don't seem to take off that much damage. Once you've killed both gunners, you'll see a cutscene and receive the Lv3 key card as your reward. If you're low on rations, you'll find one in the southwestern portion of the canyon. Various boxes of grenade and gun ammo are lying around as well. Move north when you're done scavenging and enter the nuke building.
Nuke Building 1F
Run up the left side catwalk and grab a ration all the way at the end, underneath a window. Run back to where you started, then down the ramp toward a nearly closed door. You should be arriving just as a soldier walks by behind the door. Crawl underneath. You can't use your weapons in here unfortunately. Walk (don't run) to the left, along the corridor between the south wall and a row of nuke missiles. You'll come upon a pair of lockers in the southwest corner of the room. Quickly hop into one of them. The left side has some M9 ammo, and the right locker has a box of grenades. Keep watching from inside the locker until the soldier passes by. You'll know he's coming when the sound of your heart beating gets louder.
As he passes by, get out of the locker, and head up the stairs. Kneel down on the stairwell, just before you get to the top -- the soldier up soldier up there will stop in front of the elevator and look around a bit. If you're kneeling at the top of the stairs he won't see you when he turns around. As he moves off to continue his patrol, stand up and ambush him from behind. Get into the elevator and head to level B1.
