Now this is what you do. Start the match and set up your class with the two weapons you want to go for and also select det packs. Deploy yourself near the base at the east side. (one with the railroad tracks).
Once here you will notice two small buildings on either side of the control point that you hack to take control. You will use the building to the north part of this base. Each building has three entry points. Now that you have located the building get inside. Once the enemy has taken the control point they will start coming for you in the building. Set up all the DET packs at one or multiple door ways. Once three enemies are near the building or inside detonate them. With trial and error you will get this in no time. Now once you get that achievement you can now go for either weapon kills or the deployment kill.
To get the deployment kill go to the same building and get around $50 dollars by killing the enemy. Once you have $50 set up two deployments (Sensor Satellite) on the south door right next to each other. The reason you do 2 of them is because the first will almost always fail. Enemies come in through the south door non stop so you should get this in no time.
Finally after you have got the weapon kills, deployment kill and det kills now you will destroy 30 turrets. there are two turrets at this base that I destroyed in between my deaths from getting my weapon kills. Just spawn near the east base and keep destroying the turrets. Wait for them to recover and then destroy again.
Hope this helps everyone out on each of these achievements. Good luck
I just thought that I'd point out that the reason that the deployments often fail is due to the AA turrets shooting them down (just like how they'll shoot you down if you drop within their range).
My tip would be to take the AA turrets down before the other team takes control and keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't get repaired. When that's out of the way start dropping your deployments. =)

Deployables are dropped from the sky, a small beacon shows where item is dropped. If boosting have "enemy" stand on this beacon (he can see it).
Deployable menu is accessed by pressing UP on the D-Pad.
(note: Quite sure dropping vehicles [tank and heavy armor] don't count so use turrets, array or depot)

Probably easier to boost this one than get it legit. Just select a spot to drop your deployable and as soon as the marker is dropped, get your friend to stand over it. You many need to look up and see when it is as it drops because sometimes they drop a bit to the left or right of your marker. The deployable will kill the player and net you the achievement.

This can be done on any play mode, but I would recommend boosting this while going for Badge Expert. Simply have the other team member stand still while you order a deployable on them. It must be a deployable though, as vehicles do not work for this.
