How to unlock the Bird Hunter achievement in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered - Definitive Guide

When you get to the area where there’s a few enemies and one of them is holding a Javelin you’ll want to take them out. In this room there are two Javelins, make sure to pick up one in the right corner. Then you will want to pay attention to the green arrows that are on either side of your screen as it tells you which direction the helicopters are flying.

Before getting on the Sniper make sure to have a good look around in the sky because chances are is that there's a helicopter that's flying behind the building you are in. It will be on the edge of the map flying really far away. Try locking onto that helicopter and eventually the rocket will hit it.

You then need to get on the Sniper Rifle to snipe the enemies on the other side of the area. Then some enemies will try to breach the room you are in so take them out. After this, some more helicopters will spawn so take them all out with the Javelin. Once enough helicopters have been taken out the game will make your Javelin disappear.

You will want to pick up the other Javelin that the enemy was holding earlier in this room. Whilst the escape timer is going down keep on locking onto the remaining helicopters. Eventually you’ll see no more helicopters.

If you are still struggling, feel free to use this as a reference.


Hope this helped, thanks again.

This seems kinda buggy. Sometimes only 9 spawn, also I'm sure on one of my attempts I got all 10 but no cheevo?

With regards to my last comment, I tried this 5 times on recruit and only had 9 choppers. Played on regular and 11 spawned

I agree that it should be done on regular. Not enough choppers on recruit.

I just completed this on Regular difficulty. After using the sniper to get you your next objective of running to the roof, I had to pick up the Javelin from the corner of the room and shoot down the remaining helicopters hat had spawned in after the animation throws you off the sniper. There was 11 in total (9 from when the sniper was active + 2 after the timer for the next objective was active).

I destroyed 11 on Regular and it didn't unlock. It may unlock late, but any tips?

From what I've noticed playing it on both version, there's a helicopter flying behind the building you are in on the edge of the map. You can still lock onto that helicopter, but it will take a while for the missile to get there.

@babyishduck

This worked for me, look towards the back of the map and you'll be able to lock on to it

Just got this achievement on Veteran.
After picking up the 2nd Javelin when the countdown started, I only had to take out 1 more helicopter and the achievement popped.

Help lol. I kill 4 before there no more, get on the sniper, kill the guys trying to flank and then I only get 3 helicopters to kill and no more spawn. I’ve restarted the level 6 or 7 times now and it’s still 8 at the most I get to kill

Just a heads-up, the BTR's on the ground count toward this achievement, I literally only shot down like seven helicopters and the three BTR's.

Yeah, I got that one, but I hung off the open area where you find the Javelin to shoot down that one. I literally only shot down seven helicopters and shot three BTR's.

Even by following the guide perfectly several times I cannot get this achievement. In the final part when your meant to escape, only 1 helicopter spawned?

@NoHeroes94 - Here's my achievement stream from this past Sunday where I knocked off the achievement without shooting down a full ten helicopters. Start around the 02:12:00 mark, that's about where I started the section in question, and on Recruit I'll add.

@CraterBob Yep, pretty sure the same happened to me on recruit. Lost count but definitely didn't shoot down 10 helicopters that's for sure, 7-8 is more accurate. I also made sure to shoot the 3 BTR's due to your comment & the achievement popped after shooting down the last heli I could find

@MagnificMeryk - I'm wondering if it had to do with the helicopter count possibly carrying over each time I reloaded the checkpoint? The achievements are slightly laggy, I might have reached the ten across multiple reloads and the count might have been increasing each time without resetting.

Seemed very inconsistent for me. I swear sometimes I couldn't get all 10 to spawn but got it on my 4th try!

One thing I recommend is to help you keep from being distracted by the enemies from behind you in the building while your at the sniper corner, as you fist get in to this area, lay down all claymores in each room and hall way, then take out the rest of the enemies in the sniper patio, then you just need to focus on getting the helos, and BTRs if they help. Will be trying this soon with the BTRs. I may try full on Regular as well.

For anyone struggling with this like I did I Tried this on recruit about 7 times always ended up with only 9 choppers, first time regular I got 6 choppers on the first wave instead of 5 getting me the achievement so worth playing around with the difficulty.

I'll try regular again...though I tried regular once already. I noticed on recruit, there is one helo that i believe some may miss, its on the far left side out a ways. I had a lock on this one but missed it as it got behind the building and lost the lock. I think you need to get the 5 in the first wave before you have to get on the snipper.

I go agree, this achievement seems too random in regards to helos appearing. Frustrating.

If you are somehow missing one, take the javelin up to the roof. As soon as you get to the top of the stairs, a door will open up with an enemy inside. Kill him, and then walk out on to the balcony and aim the javelin at the two green boxes and slowly walk forward. You'll be able to take out that helicopter right there and that's what did it for me.

You don't have to do this on Regular. Took me a few reloads but I ended up getting it on Recruit without any issues.

This achievement is a buggy mess. I’ve shot 11 helos on runs and it finally unlocked on at least my 20th attempt on recruit having hit only 9. Keep trying, it will unlock at some point.

yeah I am trying this but on Regular my squadmates can not take out a simple group of soldiers leaving me to defend our position. not only that most of the helicopters spawn to the right are less than I need

The 5th helicopter is behind the building before you go on the sniper you need to leave the room head back and shoot it from the other open area

Crater Bob didn't work for me. The Regular difficulty did for some reason. I killed 5 first section, 4 in the second and then on recruit when I ran no more helicopters spawned in, but on regular when I was running after my nine kills I saw 2 more choppers spawn and shot those down for 11 chopper kills and like 4 BTR kills. popped as soon as I saw the last chopper going down!

Ya just tried this, I think you got to get at least 5 in the first wave. I tried restarting the last CP and and taking out last few BTRs and didn't get it. I think you need to get 4-5 helos in first wave. I even tried on regular. I only see 2-3 after your hop off the sniper. Need to hop off soon as possible and go get the next gavelin. I'll have to restart this mission again.

Mission 11 Of Their Own Accord
Difficulty: Recruit

Near the end of the mission, you will acquire a Javelin rocket launcher to destroy helicopters and tanks. You'll also be required to utilize a sniper to eliminate enemies. Continue to use your Javelin first to destroy all of the helicopters you can during this section. Then after the sniper section, a timer will begin to exit the area. Ignore this timer and reequip your Javelin to destroy the next wave of helicopters that will spawn in. Reload checkpoints as needed.

Here is a video guide with English commentary!

Mission: Of Their Own Accord
5 before sniper, 5 after sniper
Restart from checkpoint works
can do it on recruit
as soon as you get the Javelin, make sure you look to the far left. There are helicopters to the distance
Then after sniper clear enemies with grenade launcher then get the javelin back and aim towards building off to the right :D
Took 4 tries for me. Hope this helps someone struggling!

Just a note for everybody, you may have to play on hardened Difficulty to get enough Helicopters to appear. Myself and others have run into a problem while playing on recruit where only like 6-7 Helicopters appear. Just try a different difficulty and you will get it.

To get this Achievement you must shoot down all 10 enemy helicopters on the level Of Their Own Accord with the Javelin launcher.

All helicopters are flying above the Crow’s Nest & there’s Javelins there.

The first 5 helicopters are there already, while the other ones spawn after using the Barrett .50 cal sniper rifle & protecting your position from enemies.

You can’t shoot down the last helicopter & finish the level in time & do this on Recruit difficulty. Don’t go to your helicopter since you will end the level.

Towards the end of Mission 11, 'Of Their Own Accord', you are tasked with providing cover for the Washington Monument evacuation by sniping enemies on the ground shooting rockets at the evacuation helicopters. Ignore that order at first and pick up a Javelin (there are two lying around the room you are in). You need to destroy as many helicopters as possible, so when they fly in, take aim and wait for the Javelin to lock onto the target (hold ) then fire (). Make sure you are aiming out of the big hole in the wall as the rockets need room to fire.

After about four or five, to progress the objective, you need to get on the mounted sniper rifle to thin out the resistance on the ground. Then you need to defend the area you are in from advancing forces. When that is done, continue to destroy helicopters with it.

Eventually you will be told to evacuate and a timer will start to countdown. The Javelin you were carrying will have disappeared so pick up another one. If you haven't unlocked the achievement yet, ignore the timer for the time being. You need at least 45-50 seconds on Recruit to make it to the evacuation helicopter, so once you've met the requirements of the achievement, book it to the roof as fast as possible. You should be able to destroy the helicopters and evacuate before the timer runs out.

Thanks to PS4Trophies for the video:
