    When you jump off the chopper it will shine a spotlight at enemies and stun them just as if they have been flashed run to the enemies the chopper lights up and knife them, do this five times in a row.

    This can also be done by stunning the enemies with flash grenades.

    Another way to do this if you are having trouble withthe helicopter stunning is wait until you RIDE the HELICOPTER away and land up on the balcony. there will be 2 guys inside.

    throw a flash, then knife them.
    there will be a long straight area after that with at least 1 mabey 2 guys. toss flash and knife.

    then enter other little building after the straight away and run in and knife them (there should be 2).

    Achievement will pop about 2 seconds after you do it if done correctly.

    Please let me know if the solution is not satisfactory and I will work on fixing it.

    Nuka Cola CapDon't even wait, as soon as you jump off the helicopter flash and stab haha. The odd bad guy will be blinded by the light and save you a flash-bang.

    Absolute PIECE OF PISS on recruit single player :)

    This can be done solo, you do not need a second person in the helicopter to shine the spotlight.

    Start by putting the difficulty on Regular, this will make this a very easy achievement to obtain.

    Ride in the helicopter and kill enemies until all four pieces of Intel have dropped onto the ground. You will then land on the helipad and jump out of the helicopter in order to retrieve the pieces of Intel. While the helicopter is flying around above you, it will shine it's spotlight on enemies, blinding them. Simply run around in the courtyard and stab the enemies while they are blinded by the spotlight. You have to face them toward the spotlight in order to blind them, if they are "locked on" to you before you stab them. (The spotlight can't be shining at their back, it must hit them from the front for them to be blinded.)

    ALSO, enemies that are stunned by flash bang grenades count toward this achievement making this even easier.
