Secret Weapons is the seventh mission in Sniper Elite 5‘s campaign. In it, Fairburne goes deeper into enemy lines to discover multiple V2 rockets aimed at the Allied advance in Normandy. Still, you might want to tag a few workbenches to unlock weapon upgrades and attachments. Here’s our Sniper Elite 5 Secret Weapons Workbench locations guide to help you with those that you can find in Mission 7.

Sniper Elite 5 – Secret Weapons Workbench locations guide (Mission 7)
The Workbench locations in the Secret Weapons mission of Sniper Elite 5 can be seen in the map image below. I suggest tagging them in this order: Pistol -> Rifle -> SMG. This is due to the way you’d progress through the level, whereby the northernmost facility tends to have the main objective that’s furthest from your starting point.
Pistol Workbench
You can find this by turning left along the main highway at the start of the level. There’s a sloping path to your left next to a waterfall. The tunnel here is blocked by a wooden obstacle, but you can dismantle it without needing a tool. Make sure you grab the Satchel Charge as well.
Rifle Workbench
Continue progressing through the level until you reach the Lake Compound, which is on the western side of the map. Sneak around and you should see a couple of hostiles looking at the horizon. You can take them out since they both drop keys. One leads to the rocket control center which is part of a side objective, and the other opens the door here.
SMG Workbench
For this one, you’ll need to make your way to the northernmost facility. There are a couple of ways to get there:
- Main entrance – The path is heavily guarded and there are a lot of soldiers inside. You should see a stairwell in the center of the chamber. Go down one floor to reach a particular corridor (I’ll talk more about this in a while).
- Assembly area – You can enter this part of the base by following the main road heading northeast or the tunnel past the Lake Compound. There’s a V2 rocket jutting out of the entrance. If you went through here, go to the end of the assembly area. Look to your left to see a stairwell and climb one floor up.

Whatever the case may be, you should find yourself in a narrow corridor with rooms that act as living quarters for the soldiers.
The door at the end can be blown open using a Satchel Charge, but that’s going to alert the other hostiles in the facility.
If you want, you can just check the kitchen on the left side. You can crawl through the vent to tag this Workbench. This will complete the tally for all Sniper Elite 5 Secret Weapons Workbench locations.
Lastly, before you clear the level, make sure you eliminate your Kill List target as well. Your quarry is in a smaller hangar east of this base.
Sniper Elite 5 is available via Steam. For more information, check out our guides and features hub.
