How to unlock the Missile Defense System achievement in BioShock Infinite: The Complete Edition - Definitive Guide
This was my 360 guide
The first/easiest chance to get this is on the very first round on the second arena (Duke and Dimwit Theater) this is the easiest area since you can restart if you fail since it is conveniently at the very beginning of the theater.
First of all I did this with a sniper (but it can be done with any gun that shoots bullets and if you can aim down the sights midrange and long range weapons work best) and I cleared out the turret.
Once you have done that save a rocket launcher enemy and a normal enemy
The goal is to get the weaker one in the middle of you and the rocket launcher enemy.
When he shoots its all about timing from there (depends on distance in between enemies) you need to shoot the rocket in mid air so that the explosion kills the other enemy in between the rocket launcher enemy and you.
I was on the far side of the balcony (the lower one) and all the enemies were on the higher one (the one on your right when you spawn) this seems to be an easier spot to shot from if they are on the higher balcony
If you die just restart and you will have more ammo don't give up this achievement was a pain, I tried it a few times before it unlocked.
If you vote negatively please leave a comment saying why.
Good Luck and Happy Hunting

I got it by standing in the starting area, killing the mosquito and waiting for the enemies to come down. Then I got the attention of the RPG and used return to sender and a pistol. Throw up RTS and once then enemies gather shot the rocket. The pistol is great for hitting the RPG.

I got this to unlock while I was not firing any weapon. I was in the middle of several 'normal' enemies with a rocket guy firing at me from a distance. A rocket hit, an enemy died, and the achievement unlocked. I had the Return to Sender shield (the tap-trigger version, not the hold-trigger version) on, and my best guess is that this somehow counts as shooting the rocket down.
I haven't confirmed that this works on other accounts or anything, but if you're looking for a potential alternate way to get this achievement, I'd suggest training rockets into groups of melee/machine gun/etc enemies with your RTS shield up.

Another very perfect and very simple one is in the Ops Zeal challenge map. At wave 6.
At wave 6 you start at the bow of the ship with some regular soldiers walking around. Buy both Bucking Bronco upgrades. Shoot around with your machine gun to lure in some of the men. One RPG soldier shoots from the balcony at you. Use bucking bronco. Shoot the rocket at the exact moment it gets in your face. Easiest sollution, 30G in the pocket!
If you get this later in the game with more upgrades, this will be a walk in the park, finished within 10 minutes or so.
