Activision were truly cooking up a storm when coming up with the ‘Unknown Shipping’ Mission objectives. Although we are all used to roaming around the streets or taking a boat out to tour the perimeter of Al Mazrah, the task in finding some random Packages at the bottom of the ocean is one ridiculously difficult task if you do not know where to look. Although the task at hand is made simple in Ashika Island, the same cannot be said for Al Mazrah. With the entire Mission being set out at sea, this is Vincent’s guide on where to find all Contraband Packages for the Tier 2 White Lotus Mission, Unknown Shipping in Warzone 2.0 DMZ.
How to Complete Unknown Shipping Mission
Previously known as Salvager, this Mission has not only changed titled but also made a switch onto another Faction – White Lotus. Being an exclusive Faction Mission for multiple Seasons (Crown), only available to those who have purchased Modern Warfare 2, Salvager has moved away from exclusivity and towards a more mainstream audience for casual DMZ players. But the contents of the Mission remains the same – players need to find a total of 5 Contraband Packages, spread out in Al Mazrah and Ashika Island.
Not only is the objectives the same but, the locations in which the Packages can be found remain the same also. But if you are new to the Crown Faction and the way that Unknown Shipping works, you may find yourself having trouble swimming aimlessly through Al Mazrah’s waters in search for the Packages. Therefore, this guide will show you all locations where you can find each Contraband Package, divided into each Zone – Al Mazrah and Ashika Island.

Where to Find the Contraband Packages in Al Mazrah
Sawah Village
The first of three Contraband Packages can be found at Sawah Village, within the Sunken Ship located in the centre of the Village. This is a very easy Ship to locate as it is highlighted on the Map. The Package is located on the lower half of the Ship. This area is highly contested by enemy AI, so you may wish to enter the area for the southern side, following the water from Sarrif Bay to Sawah Village. So that you can board the Ship without alerting many enemies. Otherwise, you will have to clear these out before attempting to extract the Package as this area is open to a lot of attacks. The Package is located on top of a Crate, in front of a broken staircase.
The next Package is located to the east of the primary Sunken Ship of Sawah Village. You should use a Boat to travel across these three destinations to save you a lot of time in your travel. As you head onto the Ship, go towards the bow and enter the first room on your left. In here, you will see a locker and beside it is a table. You need to look underneath the table, where another table is topped over in front of it, only giving you a little gap to see the Contraband Package on the ground. To clarify, the Package is underneath the table against the wall, to the left of the locker in this room.
The final Package is by far the hardest to find as there is nothing on the Al Mazrah Map to indicate its location. So players should refer to the screenshot below for the exact location where you can find this final Package. Go east after obtaining the second Package in Al Mazrah (in the half accessible Sunken Ship outside of the Village). This will take you into the vast open waters of Al Mazrah where players need to go to the edge of the E8 coordinates. You will need to dive into the water to find the Sunken Ship where the Contraband Package can be found on the west side, at the top of the Ship. We want to stress that if you do not find it immediately, resurface and try again otherwise your character will run out of breath.
Where to Find the Contraband Packages in Ashika Island
The Ashika Island Shipwrecks are much easier to find as these are highlighted on the Map. The Shipwreck is located at the eastern border of the Island where two Sunken Ships can be found. The first Package is located at the southern Ship, inside the central open section of the Ship where a pool of water can be found. You need to dive into the water and hold the left side of the interior wall, facing west. The Package can be found at the bottom of the pool, underneath a large wooden crate.
The second Package can be found on the north Sunken Ship. You should head straight to the bow of the Ship, and once again hug the left wall (this time facing east, away from the Island). The Package is located underneath the wheels to reel the anchor in. Below is a screenshot indicating the location of both Contraband Packages on Ashika Island.
Once obtained as both can be picked up within a few minutes of one another, head to the Exfil Point and make sure that you are able to safely exfil with these Packages otherwise you will have to hit this Objective again. The Mission ends once you exfil with the final Contraband Package. The Objectives can be hit in whichever order you like, just remember that you must complete each Objective within a single deployment. So, make sure you hold onto those Packages with your life. You may find it easier to complete this with a team as some Ships are highly contested and you can easily run into other Operators trying to complete this Mission too.
