Battlefield™ 2042 – Aerial Destroyer Achievement & Trophy Guide

Aerial Destroyer

Destroy an air vehicle with a rocket launcher while parachuting.

Though the description may make it sound like a close to impossible achievement, it’s crazy simple to unlock in a couple of minutes against enemy AI by following these steps.

1. Launch a Solo/Co-op game on Orbital with the AI difficulty set to Beginner.

2. Spawn in as any Specialist and make sure to have the FXM-33 AA Missile equipped as it auto-locks onto targets.

3. After the countdown ends and you’re let into the game, stay idle for about 20 seconds till you make your way to the top of the building in front of you, namely the skyscraper holding objective A1. You wait 20 seconds before making it to this building to allow the enemy transport vehicle to reach the center of the map within target locking distance. Reach the objective too early, and it flies off the map like a poorly scripted event.

4. As the previous step states, make your way to the top of the building of Objective A1 after a 20-second delay.

5. Spot the passenger aircraft, lock it onto it, and fire, registering the first shot of damage.

6. For the second shot (the one that destroys it), jump off the building, equip your parachute followed by the FXM-33 AA, auto-lock, and shoot it down.

7. Alt + F4 and celebrate.

The passenger aircraft moving to the center of the map is 100% scripted even that can be restarted and completed each time in case of any blunders on the 20 second idle time at the start of the round.
