How to unlock the Leibniz Defense Agency achievement in Vanquish - Definitive Guide

When you get to the infamous Plaza a Sawtank will eventually break through the wall and head straight for the Statue.
In order to stop him you can either throw an EMP or stand close to where he spawns and shoot his weakpoint with the Shotty. On Casual he should be dead after 3 shots.

Only on Act 3-2: Attack

Remember those little Pangloss statues you've been shooting at? Or perhaps you haven't found any yet? Anyways, there's a big stone one on the plaza near the end of Act 3-2. In order to get this achievement, you have to destroy every enemy and complete the mission with the big Pangloss statue intact. It is not as hard as it sounds.

When you cross the bridge and arrive at the plaza, you will be ambushed from all sides mainly by red regular robots. They aren't any threat to that statue. The real threat will be an enemy vehicle with circular saw blades in front of it, the same one from Act 1-5 (Trust). Once you've destroyed some robots, you'll get an animation of this vehicle breaking through the rubble.

This vehicle is pretty fast and can destroy the statue in a matter of seconds. So, as soon as this vehicle appears, stun it by throwing an EMP Emitter at it, then shoot at the core at the back side of it. Rinse and repeat if necessary. On casual difficulty, you can destroy this vehicle with the rocket launcher. It should take no more than 3 hits. (thanks Solty)

It’s very easy to get the trophy if, standing by the statue when a drilling machine with robots appears, you first throw an EMP grenade at it, followed by three hand grenades. The car explodes, finish off the remaining robots, the achievement is yours.

At the very beginning of the chapter, you will see a statue similar to that golden figurine from the collecting trophy.

Set to "casual auto"
As soon as the tank appears, throw EMP at it, preventing it from reaching the statue and breaking it.

A couple of shots from behind and the treasured trophy is in your pocket.
