To locate PSZ-5I Hawk armor, you need to go to Sultansk, located in Zaton, towards the east of the Lesser Zone. From there, head north to the main road, then cut through the terrain until you reach the main base of the area. Your destination is northwest from there, heading toward a question mark on the map denoting the railway. This is where the Hawk Armor is found.

Finding the Keypad Code

You have to head into the railway maintenance facility; the Keypad is at the corner of the building. Get the code for the door from there. Then, head northeast to the high towers; the code is all over those towers and the adjacent structures.

Climb to the Top of the Towers

Start by jumping onto boxes and platforms, gradually making your way up the first tower. Watch for light radiation and enemies in the area.

Use careful timing for your jumps—some require precision to avoid falling.

Locate the Numbers

  • Second Number: The number “4” is visible on a roof nearby.
  • Third Number: The number “6” is on a piece of construction equipment.
  • Fourth Number: The number “8” is on a train carriage in the area.

The complete code is 2468, though it’s unclear if this might vary between playthroughs.

Entering the Code
