How to unlock the Ground Pound achievement in Iron Man - Definitive Guide

You unlock the Extremis armor by completing the extra mission "One Man Army vs. Maggia" which is unlocked during the course of the single player game.
In order to do a ground pound, you must fly high above a targeted unit and let Iron Man fall. That is accomplished by completely releasing LT. All human enemy units will die immediately, but most vehicles will need some softening up (via Repulsors or melee) before a ground pound will destroy them.
You can get this Achievement as early as the third mission, whether you use Mission Select or by replaying the story, as it is the earliest you can choose a different suit.

Thank Fafrhdd! A compliment coming from a community expert like yourself is a big ego booster.

The Extremis armor is unlocked by defeating the second One Man Army mission. Now fly up into the air and let go, falling and slamming into the ground. Aim this next to a tank or soldier.
