How to unlock the Divine Thunder achievement

    This achievement must be obtained during the "Raising The Flag" mission in Act II. The mission is a breeze on easy, and I'd recommend using the Grumman TBF-1 'Avenger' since that gains you an extra medal.

    This mission has three parts: first you have to destroy the artillery on the mountain, then you have to destroy three groups of three tanks each. Both of these parts are very easy if you use rockets - for the artillery, just shoot all four rockets on a target and then move on to another target, and any group of tanks can be destroyed with one well-placed rocket (imagine what four will do).

    Part three of the mission is about getting this achievement. Kamikaze pilots will attack the fleet and you'll have to shoot them out of the air. There are three volleys of several formations, with three planes per formation. Keep targeting them with Ace mode (switch targets with LB if the game gets confused and tries to put you on a secondary target) and this should be a cakewalk.

    Now here's the important part: You don't have to shoot down every single kamikaze. Every formation has three planes closing in on the same battleship but just about every formation targets a different ship, so get at least two out of three planes per formation and you should be fine. You'll only have to restart if one of the battleships is destroyed - you'll be notified by a message saying "secondary objective failed - protect all battleships".

    Mission: Raising the Flag Act II
    Aircraft: Grumman F7F Tigercat
    Difficulty: Easy

    In the second part of the mission after destroying the Artillery on the side of the mountain and destroying the tanks you will get the objective to protect the fleet.

    The F7F Tigercat has 4 cannons rockets and bombs. On easy you will only need a burst or two to take out the 3 or 4 planes in formation. Take out the closest group and turn around and take out the group behind them. Very easy with this plane.

    The achievement will unlock during the mission. I had the plane set on arcade style of flight controls.

    I completed the story and an not sure if I had this plane unlocked the first time through.

    Act II 'Flag on mast' mission

    Do it on easy, on other difficulties it will be quite a challenge.

    You have to destroy as much Kamikaze planes as you can but you don't need to shoot down all.

    In each wave shot one closest formation from front or side (depends direction they are comin from) then move on their back, turn around and finish rest from behind.
    You don't need to shoot all planes from each 3-4 plane formation (but if you want nail secondary target you still need to), if you have 1 left often it's better move to next wing than hunting this last plane.
