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

Recent update: it has been reported that due to a recent patch, the amount of resources that can be extracted have been massively reduced. I haven't tested this myself, but please bear it in mind, as this may seriously reduce the effectiveness of this solution

Most likely you will be working towards this late game and it should come naturally enough, but you will need a ton of GMP and to speed things along, once you’ve got the wormhole fulton device head to mission 12. At the start of the mission take out the 2 soldiers then climb the platform where there are 3 containers 1 gives you fuel resources (very useful for grinding base development) one minor metals (not that helpful late game can be sold) and finally you a container of precious metals – 500 total which can be sold for 500k GMP (note though you will have to wait until the resources are converted to be able to sell them)

After fultoning each container, head to the opposite platform and activate the document for a checkpoint. You can then replay the mission to your hearts content. The whole process takes about 2 minutes each time and is more time effective than other missions because there is no long helicopter ride at the mission start – the resources are right there in front of you.

note – if the resources aren’t there, you’ve most likely recently picked them up in open world mode. Come back later after doing a few missions and they should have respawned.

A little side note, you do NOT need to build/upgrade everything. I did not see this answer anywhere that I looked. I believe I still have almost 100 items left to build/upgrade before 100% the development tab in game.

No progress tracker I don't think, but from experience if you're working towards 100% the game you'll unlock long before then!

Can confirm that progress towards this achievement tracks only after the development is finished not as you give out the command. It popped for me just walking around after a development was complete.

Do I have to go back to ACC each time or can I just select Replay missions and still have the containers count?

You shouldn't need to go back to acc at all. Once you replay the mission and collect the containers get to the checkpoint and then restart, don't exit. You'll start again from the mission beginning. Rinse and repeat

I believe they have patched this by lowering the amounts you get from the containers by a lot. At least it was that way for me on 360. Only gave me 10 precious metals instead of 500 after the restart.

Over the course of your playthrough, you will naturally be developing weapons and equipment through Mother Base’s “Development” tab in your iDroid. Here, you can begin development on a number of upgraded weapons, equipment tools, suits and camos, helicopter customizations, and buddy equipment as well. The catch for this achievement is that you will need tremendous amount of GMP to develop 300 or more items. That, coupled with the fact that most items are locked until your Teams/Units reach a certain level, make this yet another achievement that will be quite the time-sink. 

Generally, there is no suggested path in what items to develop over others. Rather than look at this achievement in that light, you’ll simply want to continue developing items as you unlock them; even if that means you’re developing weapons and equipment that you may not necessarily want to use at any point during your playthrough. On top of this, GMP might be an issue while working on this achievement; though between replaying missions for S-Ranks and mission tasks, selling unneeded resources such as trucks, tanks, and armored vehicles, and completing Dispatch Missions, GMP should never actually be a true problem. If it is for any reason, replaying the “hard difficulty” missions such as "[EXTREME] Traitor’s Caravan" and "[EXTREME] Metallic Archaea," both of which are pretty easy and quick following the S-Rank videos provided in this guide, can net a nice amount of GMP each time you complete the missions. 

If you are in need of a specific amount of resources to further develop items that require fuel, common metal, or precious metals, refer to the link in the achievement solution below for an excellent post explaining where and how to farm unprocessed materials.

On your iDroid, you can press to navigate to Mother Base's management. In the Development Menu, you can invest GMP to construct new items to use in battle. You will be doing this a lot throughout the game. Both Enhancement and Reinforcement should come naturally but this trophy will require some extra work as late-game items tend to be much more expensive and take more time to construct. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any counter to how many development items you've completed. The trophy will unlock as soon as the 300th item is developed. If the item has a timer before it's finished, and it, very likely, will given there's only a limited amount of items that don't, then you must, like Deterrence, wait for the timer to finish before the trophy unlocks.

There are much more than 300 items for development. So you don’t have to worry.
First we develop what you need, and then everything else. Those who use farming resources in mission 12 - sell excess processed resources - get more GMP for development. This is especially true for diamonds, where 1000 pieces give one GMP lemon. And if you want to earn money honestly, you just go through the game, and GMP will gradually increase from different tasks. You can get especially good value from defending bases in FOB/Forward Bases.

For those who, like me, like to play secretly.
The fact is that in this way you don’t really develop items and in the end, when everything is completed and all the achievements are received, this achievement remains and it becomes long! Develop everything during the game, little by little, but steadily, otherwise at the end you will sit and wait for the three hundredth item to be there.

This trophy is best combined with raids on enemy PBs, for which you can get a lot of GMP for purchasing weapons and resources for developing your base, as well as unforgettably fulton
anti-aircraft guns for sale and opponents (to obtain a specialist certificate for evacuating 1000 people).
