You don't have to save rockets/missiles on Rookie... just die before that section of the mission and you'll have full ammo.

Also, there's an insanely easy way to get this in Free Mission

Skills:
- Enhanced MG
- MG Cooldown
- Enhanced Bombs +
- Boost and Turn
- Sharp Shooter
- One of: Defender, Enhanced Bombs, Extra Bombs - whatever your preference is/what you can afford

Helicopter: Hokum

Forget about rockets unless you're fighting a Hind, just use bombs. One shot and move on before the explosion for most groupings - 2-3 bombs for the massive group. Simple and very easy.

If you're wondering the same thing I was after reading JMJimmy's comment, the Hokum is a $6 DLC helicopter.

Boost and Turn and Sharpshooter also do not seem to appear in the game and those are $3 a pop, so his recommendations will run you at least $12 for one achievement.

Mobius - yeah I was playing the PC version, I didn't know they split those off as paid DLC for the Xbox

If you're good at manually spreading the rockets with cn_RS (since you fire like 8 in rapid succession) this isn't too hard on rookie. I was able to do it on my first try.

What's also useful is zooming with the bumpers when you're using the machine gun. It'll lock onto the target nearest the reticule and keep it there while you fire despite how your chopper gets turned around as you evade incoming fire.

Just a word of advice. I'm pretty sure it is not just the last checkpoint that counts. Several times I went through the 1st part of the mission slowly with machine guns, conserving my rockets for the end. No matter how quickly I did the last checkpoint, no achievement. I then tried to speed run the entire level and got it on my 1st try. I'd recommend going through on rookie. I used enhanced MG, MG cool down, quick charge, enhanced rktl+, extra rktl+, extra armor+. Use your rockets and missiles to clear out everything as quickly as you can. If you run out of one, reload your last checkpoint and you will be back at full ammo (on rookie at least). Also make sure you are leading the Hinds with your shots, otherwise they can take ever to kill w/o AAMs.

At the end of the second helicopter mission, Motherland, you'll be tasked with destroying a huge number of air defense ground targets. Take them all out as fast as possible. I did this in Free Mission, on Rookie, to make it easy. To make it easier, take any skills which enhance your gun, rocket launchers, missile count, reload speed, whatever. Take the 4AGMs but save them until this part. When you see a cluster of ground units, fire your rocket launcher pods, then clean up with 4AGMs and gunfire. Move on to the next immediately and keep alternating between rocket pods and AGM missiles. There are fuel trucks which will blow up several surrounding units but it's best to just hit the area with missiles as fast as possible - you'll get the trucks too. Don't waste time trying to target them specifically.

The achievement pops during the mission after you finish off the last target, just before the mission ends.

Can you get this on co-op?

This is done on the second helicopter mission (Motherland), it cannot be done on Co-op. Unfortunately this trophy is not very specific as to when the timer starts, but it’s been narrowed down to two possible locations.

1: At one point in the mission you are told to head to below building height and instructed to go after radar convoys. As this is the first point where you are specifically ordered to destroy the radar missile defence systems.

2: The attack on the Kremlin. Reason being is that this is the specific moment in the game where your co-pilot actually says that if you destroy the radar vans you’ll disrupt the enemy’s communications.

Unfortunately the trophy doesn’t pop until the end of the stage; it’s therefore advised that you attempt to beat the mission as quickly as possible the moment you are instructed to fly below building height.
