As you can tell, MW3 Zombies rewards you steadily with schematic drops as you complete the story missions, but even more when you complete the contracts.
While these are by no means a guarantee, it can be quite gratifying to get a lucky pull on a Reward Rift and find them. Each schematic is marked in the loot menu with a golden icon indicating its rarity. Exfil with these to keep them forever, making your life easier while playing MWZ.
