How to unlock the Shoot That Guy achievement in Defense Grid 2 - Definitive Guide

The first mission that Rear Admiral Phillips is available for use is level 12. You can also use him on the 'Fully Loaded' setting of any level, as early as level 01.
After you choose your game mode, scroll over to the right when selecting Command Team and choose Admiral Phillips. Then, just hold cn_RT during the level to use his ability. This ability makes it so you mark whatever enemy you're highlighting while holding cn_RT. All towers will fire at this enemy if they are within range. The ability lasts a little while so you can use it on multiple enemies.

Note on Admiral Phillips Availability
No AIs are available during mission 16.

As with all other achievements in this game, the achievement won't unlock until you beat the level.

You can do the 1st mission under "Fully Loaded", and you'll be able to use Admiral Phillips.

Oh, you don't need to unlock the AIs? I'll double check on my second account and change the guide accordingly.
Edit: You are correct, thanks for the info!

Right after you selected a mission, you will get the opportunity to set your perks for special weapons. The special weapon of Admiral Philips won’t be available until later in the game. If you’ve selected this perk, you can launch your special weapon attack during the mission with either  or . Do this at least once and the trophy will pop after completion of the mission.

If you want to get this trophy out of the way quickly, simply start a mission on the ‘Fully Loaded mode’, select Admiral Philips and use the special weapon.

Both the and the are mapped to the special weapon you choose at the Tower Items loadout screen. Admiral Phillips is available on all modes in missions 12-20 (except 16), and is required to use the Precision Targeting special weapon. The Precision Targeting special weapon tags an alien for all towers in range to target, and can pick multiple targets until the weapon is exhausted. It can be used once every five minutes. Note that increasing the speed using also affects the recharge time for the special weapon you have selected, if any.

Select any mission and mode that you choose where Admiral Phillips is available and select him to be your Command Team Tower item. Start the game up, place any tower to start the game, and then simply hold the down for about two seconds until the Precision Targeting special weapon fires. The achievement will unlock at the end of the game, win or lose.
