The **Meteor Crate** a special Crate added in the v0.5.0 "Air drop it like it's hot" update on July 26, 2018. It can be found as regular or golden crates, with golden crates containing rarer loot. It is also the hardest crate to break in the game, due to the fact that you have to break off the metal shell first before actually destroying the crate. It's currently the only way to find the CZ-3A1, and one of the only ways to find the AWM-S, the M1 Garand, the M4A1-S, and the OTs-38 and Skins such as the Falling Star or the Celestial Garb; however, it is not guaranteed that any one of these will drop. It is, however, guaranteed to contain exactly one random piece of Level 3 Equipment (only the normal Airdrop, the Golden one doesn't drop a Level 3 equipment). If you stand directly under the Airdrop, you will be crushed (regardless of your armor), and the kill feed will read: "The airdrop crushed <playerName>".

## Location

The Meteor Crate is a crate dropped from the sky through the Air Drop mechanism. You can find it by following the shadow of an Airplane or by looking for the orange Air Drop ping on your map. It sends out an orange pulse on the map, so it can be easily located. The drop is always random, but never goes outside the safe zone unless a Flare Gun summoned the drop.

## Trivia

* You can actually summon in crates in the final stages of the game to act as shields, as the metallic shell of the crate will ricochet bullets while also acting as a barrier between you and the enemy. You may also use ricocheting trick shots with the metal shell. Beware though, Frag Grenades or MIRV Grenades can go over the crate and kill you, and you will need quite a large amount of Flare ammo to use this strategy.
	+ This is most possible in the Desert Map wherein Flare Guns are quite common.
* All the Golden Airdrop weapons have been given a new skin. To view them, go to their respective pages.
* In the 50v50 Map, Military Meteor Crates has a special `preloadGuns` tag set to them. This feature allows players to pick up guns and not have to worry about no ammunition or stolen ammunition, as the ammo comes "packaged" along with the weapon.

The Purple Meteor Crate only spawns in the Twitch Extension (a widget in the Official surviv.io Twitch site found here). It drops the same things as the standard one, however, the contents of Tier Airdrop Outfits are replaced with the Purple Fade Skin. The airdrop is simply a normal Air Drop completely colored in dark and light purple. When opened, the red line is replaced with a purple line at the top of the crate.

## Trivia

* Ironically, when broken it will still show the same residue with the red stripe.
