- This mod is also made available from Baro Ki'Teer for

Notes[]
- Thermite Rounds is additive with similar mods. For example, a Snipetron with a max rank Thermite Rounds and Rifle Aptitude will have a 20% × (1 + 60% + 90%) = 50% status chance.
- This mod can be combined with High Voltage, Rime Rounds and Malignant Force to achieve a combined status chance bonus of 240%. With Rifle Aptitude and Hammer Shot, this bonus can be increased to 410%, more than quintupling the weapon's status chance.
Trivia[]
- Unlike the previous Cicero and Tethra mod sets that depict Warframes already available at the time of the event, the cards from Operation: Breeding Grounds depicted Mirage, a Warframe that at the time was yet to be revealed or released.
- Thermite is a pyrotechnic composition of metal powder and metal oxide. The intense heat it generates when ignited is used to cut through or weld together metal objects for civil or military purposes, such as welding together copper wires for electrical connections.
