How to unlock the Disarmament achievement in METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN - Definitive Guide

After you build a nuke you can just dispose of it in the same Menu again. Nukes you stole from other players (with FOB Missions) wont' count!

I can definitely verify that stealing a nuke from a rival's FOB and disposing of it counts towards the achievement now. Check my list if you want proof.

I just captured a nuke from another player's FOB and it shows up when I train on my own base, but it isn't showing up in my resources section, so I can't dispose of it. I'm not sure if you have to dispose of it a different way, but it seems that you have to dispose of your own nuclear weapon rather than one you've captured from another player.

@The Grond: Same thing happened to me, doesn't seem to show up in my resources page after capturing opponents nukes. Seems like you can only dispose of your own nuke.

I heard after you capture a nuke it might take a few hours for it to be converted into nuclear waste for you to dispose of.

I just hope you don't have to wait as long as until you develop a nuclear weapon (24 hours :-( )

Dislike, because captured nukes don't work for this solution at all.

I haven't been able to test or verify this myself, but I heard the Oct 6th patch fixed the issue preventing players from disposing nukes stolen from other people's FOBs. Maybe someone can confirm or refute this?

Also, if you're having trouble disarming your own nuke (before someone steals it from your FOB), just switch to offline mode and then dispose of it. I kept getting a "network error" while disposing my nuke online, so I had to resort to this.

I can also confirm stealing a nuke from an FOB and disposing of it does pop the achievement.

Mission Accomplished!! The second nuke I built didn't get stolen! Yay! dance

It's very simple to actually dispose of a nuclear weapon, but takes a while to get one!

You can build a nuke yourself, but there's a VERY high chance it will be stolen!! That happened to the first one I built, it was stolen almost right after I built it, so I couldn't dispose of it.
Either build the nuke and take note of exactly when it will be done and dispose of it right away, or play offline avoiding FOB missions as detailed below.
OR--try stealing someone else's nuke! However, I've tried multiple times, and the only people who have nukes are the ones with ridiculous FOB defenses--save yourself some time and resources and build one yourself. wink


The requirements to build the Nuke are 75000 Fuel, 50000 Minor Metal, and 750000 GMP, of ONLINE resources. Your Offline resources are generally 10% of your online resources, so you'll need over 80000 Fuel total, etc.
To access the Nuke build option, you need to open up the Mother Base menu, select Resources, then the far right option gives you the choice to build Nukes and Dispose of Nukes.
Nukes take 21 online hours to build.

There is a trick you can use to avoid having your nuke stolen however, if you haven't passed mission 21, or haven't gone online.
If you never accept the FOB mission that occurs after mission 21, by disconnecting your internet whenever it comes up(very annoying, but it works) the FOB trial mission is cancelled and you CANNOT be invaded by other players and have your stuff stolen!! You'll have to disconnect to avoid the FOB mission every time you go to your chopper's command center, the ACC, or else play offline(disconnected). To build the nuke though, you need to be online and you can go online through the menu's, and as long as you go offline/disconnect before returning to your ACC you won't have to do the stupid internet disconnect thing to avoid the stupid FOB mission.

I finally went online near the end of the campaign.. built a nuke, and had it promptly stolen by someone near the top of the ranking leaderboards. Don't suffer what happened to me!

I personally recommend going online simply because you can gain more GMP and resources early in the game from your FOB and it's quite a bit of fun, but be warned--if you're online with FOB's and you build a nuke, it WILL get stolen quickly unless you dispose of it!

Thanks so much for this. I know it's been out an age but well I have shedloads of other games that claimed my time. Finally built a Nike, intending to dismantle straight away just for the cheevos - I didn't like the idea of having a nuke in the first instance. It just felt wrong given the series' opinion of nukes. Anyhoo, next day logged in, got the cheevo for making a nuke, went Demon, but resources said I had no nuke to dispose of.
Your post here gave me my answer and a route to getting that dismantling achievement. Thanks a bunch. Hey take this as a compliment but this is the first time I've ever replied to a post on TA. smile

For anyone who started this years ago and had a half decent base when you left if you return now (i did after 4 years of not logging in) you go to Motherbase -> PF Grade -> Any League -> Press RT. You can redeen PF Points for all kind of rewards i came back and saw way over 4million points on it and i can buy like 50 nukes with the amount of points i have, about 1k of the points will get you roughly 5k mats so no need for grinding if you have played this game start to finish atleast a year ago you should have quite a bit of points already

If you want this achievement as soon as possible without worrying about keeping it for your FOB, or getting it stolen from your FOB, do this.

If you are NOT connected to the internet, skip to the bottom.

- As soon as you get the DETERRENCE trophy, if you go to dispose of your nuke, you may get an error message. This is because it hasn't been transferred to your FOB.

- Press your PS button on controller.

- Settings -> Network Settings

- Uncheck connect to Internet option

- Back on the game you should get a message about being disconnected from the network.

- Open iDroid, Resources -> far right tab, Dispose.

You can achieve this by pausing the game and selecting Disconnect. It will put you to offline mode and allow you to dispose of the nuke. No need to actually disconnect the PS4 from the internet

^what he said. I'm always playing this game on disconnect anyways, save for the few times I need my FOB resources.

In order to develop a nuke, you will first need to have completed mission 31, "Sahelanthropus," and have built at least one Forward Operating Base. FOB construction will take place after mission 22, "Retake the Platform." You will also need an online connection for this achievement.

Once these prerequisites are met, head into the Mother Base tab on the iDroid and then into the “Resources” menu. From here, scroll over to the last sub-menu and you can develop a nuke for 750,000 GMP, 75,000 Online Processed Fuel, and 50,000 Online Processed Minor Metal, with a loss of 50,000 Heroism. Be aware that it will take about exactly 30 real-time hours for the nuke’s development. In addition, that time is for real-time, in-game hours, meaning when the game is off, progress will not be made. The time will only track when you are in-game either playing missions or just hanging out in the ACC. It's important to know that these resources must be materials that you gathered while playing Online FOB missions. Single-Player resources will not count towards nuke development. This means you'll need to engage in FOB missions frequently and sneakily extract your opponent's materials.

Once the nuke has been built, the "Deterrence" achievement will unlock. When you're ready to snag "Disarmament," simply head back into the Resources tab a second time and you can immediately dismantle the nuke for just 100,000 GMP. Unlike the former, this achievement does not require an online connection.

You can dispose of the nuclear weapons you created, or you can dispose of those that you obtained from other players. To do this, look in the “PB Tasks” item to the right of the list of players for the total number of personnel the player has, the number of platforms and nuclear weapons. These are the types of players we need; the weapon itself is usually stored on the edge of the main platform, looking like a warhead in a rectangular container. They also have the corresponding emblem on them, so you'll know it when you see it. We carry out the recycling itself in the “Resources” menu in the same tab where the weapon was created.

I advise you to dispose of it immediately, because they may steal your weapon and you will have to make a new one)

I’ll add, based on 2019:
In order not to look for opponents with weapons, we go to the tab in which everyone who has a weapon will be shown. This tab appears after a certain stage of the game. But, it’s 2019 and (at least for me) there were a maximum of 2 people in this tab. Very often no one at all. And even more often - it seems like people are in the tab, but they don’t have a weapon icon, which is strange. But if you notice such a person, it’s not a fact that you will connect to him, since they are worth their weight in gold and there they can already rob them And don’t make weapons yourself, they can be stolen instantly.
Yes, the bomb will be located at the location where you land on the main base in all cutscenes. I was too lazy to shoot everyone, I just ran to the bomb, hid behind it and took off. It can be sorted out in the resources tab in a fraction of a second.

Before creating nuclear weapons, I would recommend maximizing the main platform, otherwise it will be very easy for your bomb to be stolen.
But even if the platform is already pumped in to the maximum, don’t delay it. Destroy immediately.
