Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain Guide: All Blueprint Locations

Before you can go all-out with researching various new gear and weapons on Mother Base, not only will you need various specialized personnel, which you can find here, but you'll also need blueprints.

Thankfully, some of the blueprints pop up in various missions and side ops, and holding up a soldier and interrogating him might reveal the blueprint's location. However, we'll provide you with the full blueprint list, as well as locations where you can find them.

While we won't be giving the exact location of the blueprint, just remember to sneak up behind an enemy and hold R2 or Right Trigger to restrain them. Then proceed to interrogate them and wait for the notification that your map has been updated. The soldier will usually make mention of the blueprint, so you know if the location on the map points to one.
