The loot pool present in each Fortnite season is massive, which means there are lots of rare weapons you might have a tough time finding. One of the most difficult tools to find is the Precision Air Strike, and it's a deadly weapon of mass destruction worth acquiring.
The Precision Air Strike is one of the most effective weapons you can find around the island, and when you use it, you're guaranteed to deal a ton of damage. If you're eager to try this item out or need it to tackle some important quests, here's how to get and use the Precision Air Strike in Fortnite.

Where to find Precision Air Strike in Fortnite
Precision Air Strikes can be found in OXR Bunkers or obtained from OXR Drop Pods. It's not an item you'll come across while looting casually, so to find one, you need to focus on one of these two options.
How to get Precision Air Strike in Fortnite
To get a Precision Air Strike, you must increase your OXR Rank. This weapon only drops from Drop Pods at Rank A or higher, and you can also only enter OXR bunkers once you've reached the same rank, so leveling up is crucial if you want to use this powerful weapon.
Once you reach Rank A, a Drop Pod that may contain this item will be sent down from the sky to your location. Open it up to grab some goodies, including a Boon, ammo, weapons, and possibly a Precision Air Strike.
Also, after reaching Rank A, a nearby OXR Bunker will be marked for you. Head to the location and interact with the door to gain entry. Search around the bunker for a golden case to see if there's a Precision Air Strike present for you to grab. Upon approaching the case, it will look like you have to buy it, but it's always free, so just interact with the container to unlock it.
How to use Precision Air Strike in Fortnite
To use the Precision Air Strike, point this weapon at the area you want to call in the attack, then select the attack button to activate it. This button varies by platform, but is always displayed in the bottom left corner, right above your health and shield bars, to help you use it.
Upon activating a strike, a few ships will fly in above. Red lasers will surround the targeted area, letting you know how much ground will be covered in the attack. Make sure you're standing outside the lasers to remain safe. After a few seconds, the ships will drop their first explosive attack. Two more will follow, slightly paced out, raining down devastating damage to all enemies and structures within the area.
The Precision Air Strike only has one charge, so you need to use it wisely. As soon as you call in the attack, this item is immediately removed from your inventory, so the only way to call in more is to find one again.
Destroy objects using the Precision Air Strike in Fortnite
To complete the Destroy Objects using the Precision Air Strike quest, you need to obliterate 25 items using this weapon. This includes trees, rocks, walls, tables, chairs, cars, and anything else that qualifies as an object out around the Fortnite island.
It's best to use your single charge with the Precision Air Strike around main POIs or fairly large Landmarks like gas stations to ensure you get this mission done in one go. I used my first strike while out in the wild to eliminate two enemies, and although there were some items around, I only checked off 16 out of the 25 required for this mission. You can easily get it done in one go if you pick some kind of building to send your strike at.
With this tricky task out of the way, you can now move on to tackling other key missions around the island. Next, you might work on finding a Hammerhead Choppa, finishing all Welcome to the Infestation quests, and claiming Capture Points.
