Just circle all the way around the mountain and make sure you kill every enemy on the platform.

Missable
This is missable as you can finish most of the level on Casual difficulty and not be forced to kill many enemies.
The trophy will pop around the time you finish the objective to destroy the Com Towers in "Hales Gambit", provided you've killed everyone/everything you've encountered up to this point. Enemies and destructible items show as Gold whilst your vision mode is active. Everything else is coloured Gray.
On the first mission (Hale's Gambit) you pilot a flying vehicle. The controls are the same as the flying vehicle from the main campaign. For this achievement, you need to kill all of the Red Faction on the exterior of the base. As you fly along, watch you radar for red dots to see where the Red Faction are. If you're having trouble finding them, press to highlight them in thermal imaging. The final Red Faction you need to kill are around a generator that you need to destroy, before you infiltrate the inner defenses.
In the very first task, in the canyon, you don’t have to kill anyone, i.e. on Amateur difficulty, you can simply fly to the ring (mountain base), along the perimeter of which you need to destroy four towers.
Destroy the towers, then turn on the infrared mode ( RB ), and fly around the perimeter of the ring several times, destroying all living things. Don't destroy the main generator in the cave in the center of the ring until you get the achievement, i.e. until you destroy all the enemies around the perimeter of the ring.
