Hello Everyone
Here I will provide Information on the Challenges in the Campaign and how to get them.
WARNING: WHATEVER YOU DO, NEVER SELECT "NEW STORY" FROM THE MAIN MENU! IT WILL RESET ALL YOUR CHALLENGES! Thank you DarkLordRaptor for this important Information. He was screwed in every Hole possible by this.
However, you can use RB to Rewind the Story WITHOUT resetting Challenges. Doing this will also allow you to restart at Checkpoints.
Before we start, you should do all these on the Easiest Difficulty Setting, makes it a lot easier.
Also, always take the Access Kit with you on every Mission (The first extra that is unlocked from the beginning). You will need it for many challenges.
If you want to check which Challenges you´re still missing, go to the Mission Select Screen in the Menu and press X. Every Mission will be listed here. Choose one with A and then press RB once to see all the Challenges for the Mission.
In order for the Challenges to be saved, you need to finish the Mission! NEVER just quit out after you get a Challenge!
Another Tip: Install the Game to your Hard Drive. It reduces the load time. Also, I had a minor bug where the game Froze up for about 1 second 4 times in a row sometimes. This hasn´t occured anymore after I installed the Game.
spxyu02 pointed out something very interesting: "To confirm a general behavior for these challenges, if you complete a challenge, then die, but don't complete it again on your "next life", it will still be complete when you finish the level. e.g. on Achilles’ Veil I used the turret to kill soldiers with vehicle explosions, then the turret was destroyed so I had myself killed by the enemy. Upon respawn I was two steps from the turret, and this time I concentrated solely on the quad drones, got that challenge, and when I finished the level, both were complete."
P.S.: This will contain Spoilers. You have been warned.
Mission 1: Pyrrhic Victory
Note: If you don´t want to use the Dragunov for the Sniper Challenge, take your Favourite Sniper Rifle along for this Mission.

Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x15) with Machete:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***The Machete is handed to you right at the beginning of the Mission. As soon as all the Action starts, do nothing but melee kills and you will have this one real quick. The Enemies don´t really aim for you here, so you´re pretty much invincible, too.
Destroy all MPLA Tanks:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Wait until you can phone in Air Support and take out every tank. They are all marked, so they are easy to spot. Remember: You have unlimited ammo, so just keep on spamming rockets (Left trigger) until all tanks are destroyed. Also, during the third wave of tanks: Start shooting them from the left, because your Helicopter will fly over these and you won´t be able to hit them anymore.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x5) with one Mortar Explosion:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one is a pain in the Ass. You will find the Mortars soon after you gain Control of Mason. They are on the right of the Battlefield in the trunk of a knocked over truck, you will need the Access Kit to open it.
I tried to get the 5 kills at the End of this large Battle, when all the Soldiers are running away from you, but for some reason the Mortars never wanted to kill more than 4 people at once (Even though there are about 50 people running very close to each other). I eventually got it at the end of the Level when you are running away with Hudson and Woods. I killed NO ONE, just stood behind a tree and waited for Hudson to run to the next stop. At the next stop I turned around and every Enemy was clustered on the River, so I threw a Mortar in there and got about 8 kills at once. So if you experience the same Problem as me at the beginning of the Mission, then just try this out.
Sink Enemy Vessels (x5):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
There are 6 enemy boats total. Five will come to the right side of your Boat and the Last one on the Left. Quickly kill all the Enemies on your Boat, run straight to the Machine gun on the Right and start shooting the boats coming from behind you. The Machine Gun can´t overheat, so just keep spamming the Boats until they explode.
Dive to prone on an enemy Grenade and survive:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***For this one you need the Vest hidden in a Wooden Box on the Boat, it reduces Explosive Damage. You need the Access Kit to open the Box. I did this one at the End of the Level, at the first Wave of Enemies. I killed no one and just waited until one of them threw a grenade. Then I ran to it and threw myself on it, or at least I tried, I landed about 1 Meter away from it, but it still counted. You just have to be damaged by the grenade and survive it. Look for the "Career Record Updated" in the Top Left corner to know when you did it right.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x10) with Animal Traps:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You will find the Traps in a shed right after the Sneaking part of the Level. You need the Access Kit to open the Shed. BEFORE you go up to disfigure Raul Menendez, lay traps everywhere around the Shed. There is a Ammo Box right next to the Shed. Use it. I think I layed about 40 Traps before I went up the hill, just to be sure. You can also combine this Challenge with the next one.
Kill (x4) enemies with one Mortar primed Animal Trap:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***For this one you need the Mortars from the beginning of the Level and the Traps, which you get in the Shed right after the Sneaking Part. You need the Access Kit to get both. To Prime a Trap with a Mortar, you first need to lay the Trap on the ground and then hold X while standing over it. Again, use the Ammo Box next to the Shed and lay a few of these Traps all around the Place. One of them will surely get you this Challenge.
Use elevated improvised Positions for confirmed Sniper Kills (x20):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***If you didn´t take a Sniper Rifle with you for this Mission, there is a Dragunov next to the Shed after the Sneaking Part. There will be several of these improvised Positions on the way when you are running away from the Enemies. Just go up one of them everytime Hudson stops and only make kills with your Sniper Rifle, you will have this one quick.

Mission 2: Celerium
Note: Take the Titus-6 Gun along for this Mission. You need it for one Challenge and you can use it for another one, too. The Titus-6 is the Secondary Gun in the Standard Load-out for this Mission. Also, take EMP Grenades with you.
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
Eliminate Enemy Heli before Lift off:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you´ve landed, you will fight off a few Enemies. When you´ve disposed of them, you will go up some stairs and see a starting Helicopter in the Distance. Get out your secondary Gun, the Titus-6, and blow it up.
Destroy Sentry Turret (x2) while Disabled:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You need EMP Grenades for this. After the big open Area with the Helicopters, you will come to another open area with 2 Sentry Turrets right in front of you. Disable them with a EMP Grenade and then destroy them.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x4) with one round from Titus Weapon:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***I got this one accidentally while spraying the Titus gun all around me inside the Facility. If you can´t get it this way: After the first few rooms in the Facility you will go down some stairs and there will be an Elevator with exactly 4 Enemies in it. But remember: If you fail, you´re gonna have to restart the whole Mission to try it here again since the game will save your checkpoint right after these 4 guys are dead.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x10) with Heli turret:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***To the Left of the Helicopter you have to destroy for the 1st challenge there will be another one. You need the Access Kit to hack into it and use its turret. The turret has Thermal Vision, so it will be easy to find 10 Enemies to kill with it.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x30) while using Optical Camo:
Destroy enemy ASDs (x2) by exploding Nitrogen Tanks:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you go down with the Elevator in the Facility you will find the first ASD. The Nitrogen Tank will be right next to it. Just shoot it and let it destroy the ASD. But don´t get to close, as it will kill you instantly, too. There is another ASD with a Nitrogen tank next to it right in front of you at the end of the Hallway. If you don´t complete the Challenge there, don´t worry, there will be another chance soon after this.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x10) with the Assault Shield:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You find the Assault Shield near the end of the Mission when you have to defend yourself from Waves of Enemies. A Machine near the Big Door that leads to the Celerium will spit it out. Take it and start hitting people with it, by clicking the right stick, until you get the Challenge.
Protect ASD resource from Destruction:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You find the ASD next to the Machines that make the Assault Shields. You need the Access Kit to get to it. Once its out, protect it from all Enemies. It´s easier than it sounds, considering the useless A.I. Seriously.

Mission 3: Old Wounds
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x15) with Pulwar Sword:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***DON´T mount the Horse once you gain control of your Character at the beginning of the Mission. Walk behind your horse and you find a Skeleton with the Pulwar Sword stuck in it. You will actually need the Access Kit to get the Sword out (No Joke). Once you have it, find yourself some Enemies and go Medieval on their Ass.
Destroy Enemy Helo with a Mortar:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***They actually mean a specific Helo for this. After the briefing in the Cave, you will walk out and to your left will be a locked door that you can open with your Access Kit. Inside it you will find the Mortars. Mount your Horse and gallop out of the Base. A Helicopter will land directly in front of you, this is the one you need to destroy. It only lands for about 3 seconds so you need to be quick. If you fail, get out a grenade and kill yourself.
Destroy Tank with Anti-Tank Mine:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You find the Anti-Tank Mines at the first Place you have to defend, right next to the Stinger Rocket Launcher. You need an Access Kit to open the Box they are in. Simply lay them in the way of a tank and run away. HiChui pointed out that BTRs do NOT count towards this Challenge. You´re gonna have to blow up a real tank.
Run Down Enemy Personnel (x10) on Horseback:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you come back from the Place you had to defend on the West Side, there will be a unlimited Amount of Enemy Soldiers running around everywhere in front of the Base. You know what to do.
Destroy Enemy Helo with Truck mounted MG:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you destroyed the Tank and the BTR that are charging towards the Base, 2 Helicopters will appear. Immediately run back to the Base and you find a Truck with a MG on the left side. Get on it and put down at least one Helo.
Destroy Enemy Helos (x4) at North Pass:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Credit goes to H0RR0R VACUI, who beat ParsleyParsnips by a minute to this:
"When you have destroyed the two first btrs, where you get the rocket launcher ,blew up the archway and don’t ride to the base to destroy the tanks. Instead ride straight in the opposite direction. You’ll see where the tank spawns, instead of following it, ride further in the same direction. Then you’ll see a group of helos. You have to wait a little, till you can fire with the stinger at them. Try to destroy them, before they leave this area and you should get this challenge."
Utilize Stinger (without aircraft Lock-On) to destroy Enemy Helo:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***There are a lot of Helicopters flying around to do this one on. If you want an easy one, wait until the first 2 Attack Helicopters show up. One of them will only attack the Main Base and often stand still for a few seconds while firing. Easy Target. Just make sure you have the Stingers window opened.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x25) using alternate Fire mode on Stinger:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You get the Stinger at the First Place you have to Defend after you Leave the Main Base. There are A LOT of Ammo Boxes standing around in this Level where you can get a refill, so just keep on Spamming Rockets all around the place until you got this Challenge. You need to kill normal Soldiers for this. It may take a while, because sometimes the game just won´t recognize your kill, but thankfully there is an endless amount of enemies in this Level.

Mission 4: Time and Fate
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
Eliminate PDF Enemies (x7) with Shotguns in under 10 Seconds:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one you can get easily at the beginning of the Level. After you sliced up everybody with the Machete, run directly to the Middle of the Plaza without killing anyone and you will be surrounded by Enemies. Keep firing at everyone around you until it says "Career Record Updated" in the Top Left corner.
Eliminate PDF Enemies (x8) with Truck mounted MG:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Directly in front of the House Josefina is in will be a Truck with an MG. Get on it and spray all around you. This can be a little annoying, since everybody will be shooting at you and your Vision will be constantly blurred. Also, watch out who you are shooting at, there are a few of your People standing around, too. If you shoot them, you will lose.
Rendezvous with Josefina in under 140 Seconds:
Eliminate Enemy Personnel with Molotovs (x12):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You find the Molotovs in the second house on the Right once you go down the hill with Mason and the others. You need the Access Kit to get them. Once you have them, only kill Enemies with them. When you run out of Molotovs, there is a Ammobox nearby. When you walk out of the House with the Molotovs and towards the enemies, there will be stairs to your right. At the end of the Stairs is the House with the Ammo Box in it. There will also be 6 enemies clustered together in this House. Use the opportunity.
Crash the Enemy Truck:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You don´t really need a Sniper Rifle for this, but it´s a whole lot easier with one. After you get past the House with the Ammo Box and all the Snipers on Roofs, there will be a big open Area with a Truck charging towards you. Take out the Driver. If you did it right, the Car will crash.
Eliminate Cartel Enemy Personnel with Mortars (x10):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After Woods sees Menendez and Hudson has to stop him, you will see a Garage Door to your right. Open it with your Access Kit and inside you´ll find the Mortars. Start only killing Enemies with them and you will get this quick. There is also a Ammo Box in the Garage where you can get a Refill.
Eliminate Cartel Enemy Personnel with Machete (x10):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Once you go down into the Basement, there will be a Door to your Left. Open it with your Access Kit and inside you find the Machete. There are plenty of Enemies around. It´s funny how all the Machete kills in the beginning of this Level don´t count towards this.
Locate Evidence of CIA presence:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Once you disposed of all the Enemies in the First Room of the Basement, you will find a room where a bunch of them try to burn it down. Go inside, around the Corner on the right, around another Corner on the right and you will find the Evidence sitting on a table.

Mission 5: Fallen Angel
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
Avoid Damage from large Debris in Streets:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***I don´t know if you actually have to do anything for this one. Got it on my first run of the Level and I never really noticed anything falling down. So, just watch out, I guess.
Direct CLAWs to eliminate Enemy Personnel (x8) in the flooded Street:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you get out of the House you started the Level in, you will be knee deep in Crap in the Middle of the Street. Directly in front of you will be a Garage Door that you can open with the Access Kit, a Garage Door that miracously teleports the CLAWs on some Rooftops. From then on you can command them to do your bidding and tell them where to fire. Don´t shoot anyone yourself and let them do all the work. It should also be noted, that there is apparently an endless amount of Enemies coming from behind the big tunnel at the end of the street, as long as you don´t come too close to it.
Record 400 TB of Data from Menendez Surveillance:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Later in the Level you will run around on rooftops, listening in on Menendez. You have to keep your Screen on him to keep the TB Meter rising. You have to record him 4 times total. After the 1st one you should have about 100 TB. After the 2nd one about 240. After the third one you should have already 400 TB. If not, don´t worry, you still have one more chance to do it. (btw: TB? What kind of format are they recording in?)
Incinerate Enemy Personnel (x10) with Flamethrower Attachment:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Finally got this one. Take along normal grenades for this Challenge, so you can kill yourself if you don´t get it done the first Time! As soon as you Control the CLAW, you can kill 3 of the 4 guys in front of you with the Flamethrower, the other one seems invincible. Then turn right and there will be a whole lot more people. Fire away at everyone in sight. The only tip I can give you here: DO NOT overheat the Flamethrower, it takes forever to cool down. Use short Bursts. If they destroy your CLAW and you don´t have the Challenge yet, get out a Grenade and let it explode in your Hand. The checkpoint will bring you right back into the CLAW. Btw: I don´t know if it´s necessary for this, but at the beginning of the Level you can activate the Flamethrower on one of the CLAWs. Maybe you need to do this, in order for it to work here.
Protect CLAWs (x2) from Destruction:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Credit for this Solution goes to Nikad Ronnoc:
"I've managed to bag the Protect the 2 CLAWS in mission during my 1st attempt on Veteran, I did NOT use the flamethrower at all with the 1st CLAW (Brutus I think) I just sprayed them all with the turret, once you have eliminated all the infantry inside the building immediately switch to the 2nd CLAW on the roof and spray down the helicopter and the remaining enemies, keep the 1st CLAW as far inside the building as possible, then do all the rest of the work with the 2nd CLAW, once the heli is down and the vehicles destroyed its a cake walk, even on veteran."
Deploy SOC-T Boost to find alternate Routes (x2):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Got this one Thanks to Disturbed x360a:
At the beginning of the Race, always stay on the left side.There will be 2 Jumps through buildings. Soon after this you get to the broken down Highway. Drive it up on the Left and you will see 2 Signs lying on the right side of the Street, pointing to the other side of the Highway. Jump over it. Then keep on driving. After a while you will drive through a big building. 2 Jeeps will stand in front of you, knock them out of the way with your boost, drive through the big window behind them and you will be outside again. Now stay in the middle and you will see a ramp that leads up into a narrow "Street" with a rooftop (don´t know how to call it exactly). Drive along this "Street" and you will end up in another building. Stay on the left side and you will see a Ramp leading up to the Second Floor. Drive up there and jump out of the window at the end. As you jump out the window, you will see a Ramp made of Dirt to your right. Jump over this ramp using your boost and you will smash through a window into another building and this is when it said "Career Record Updated" for me. Now, I don´t know exactly what of this is required for the Challenge, I just wanted to be as descriptive as possible. Also, try to always use the boost when you jump up or out of something, because the Challenge says "Deploy SOC-T Boost to find alternate Routes". Good Luck with this one.
Btw: It could be that you only get SOC-Ts at the end of the Level, if you open the Door in the Sewers with your Access Kit. But I´m not completely sure about this one.
Destroy Enemy Vehicles (x20) with Drone Missiles:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Soon after you start Driving with the SOC-T, you will get the the Choice to manuveur either the SOC-T or the Drone. Choose the Drone. Don´t use your machine Gun at all, only Fire rockets at everything. They can´t overheat or run out, so just spam them all around.
Destroy Enemy Vehicles (x8) with the SOC-T:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***If you think the broken A.I. at the Machine Gun is gonna do this for you, you´re wrong. You actually have to ram into every Enemy you see. They do die fast, so it´s not that hard. Just make sure you drive into everyone you see. What really doesn´t help here is the Fact, that EVERYONE, including you, drives the same Vehicle, so you will find yourself ramming your Partner sometimes.
spxyu02 has some more detailed tips for us: "Got the 8 SOC-Ts. Kept the pedal to the medal, boosted early and often (held A until boost stopped working, kept hitting it until it was ready again). Didn't go hard left on to the freeway, went just around it to the right. Got the notification as I burst through the 2 enemy SOC-Ts that are nose-to-nose inside a building; you boost through them and through a window. There are also at least 4-6 after this point, so if you don't have it by then it's all good."

Mission 6: Karma
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
Obtain Retina Scan in less than 60 seconds:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After many tries I got this one by using some of the tips I read here. As soon as you gain control of Ziggy, mash the A button to jump forward, it´s faster than just running. BUT, don´t jump if you´re climbing or hanging upside down, you will fall and often you won´t know if you´re still looking in the right Direction. After you climbed up the first time, keep on jumping and then over the hole in the Ground. Then keep on jumping towards the Fusebox, that you have to destroy with Ziggy, do it fast. Then keep on jumping until you reach the Pipe. In here, you shouldn´t jump or you will land all over the place and most likely lose a few seconds. After the pipe, stay on the left Side (you can start jumping again) and crawl through the first Fence with a hole. Jump once to land on the ground again and stay on the right side this time. There will be the next hole you can crawl through. Afterwards you will land in the big room with the Pipes. You can take shortcuts around the corners by simply jumping over them, but be cautious: You can fall down and lose. After you crawled up the last set of pipes, immediately look to the right and jump into the next shaft. You´re almost at the goal. Be cautious here when going down: You could jump to fall straight down, but often Ziggy will land on the opposite side of the Shaft and it will take ages to find out where you have to go. Run up to the Gate and destroy it with your electroshock. As soon as it´s destroyed. a Cutscene starts and Ziggy will jump down on a Guy. You will have to shock him with RT and this is where you get the "Career Record Updated", if you were fast enough. Disturbed x360a pointed out something else: There is a Mission Timer in the bottom Left corner of the Screen. Use it to check how long you still have. Also, something DarkLordRaptor found out something, something that is SOO obvious, it makes me feel really stupid: You can SPRINT with Ziggy!
Retrieve Precious Cargo (Ziggy):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Right after Ziggy gets trampled on, you get into the Big Computer Room. To the right of the Minority Report Computer will be Ziggy lying on the Ground. Just hold X to pick it up.
Kill Enemy Personnel with headshots (x5) in Club Solar:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one can get a little Annoying. The Aiming is really slow and you have to act quick. But at the same time you´re gonna have to take your time to get these headshots. So, I really don´t have any tips here. It´s not that hard really, anyway. You can make it, I believe in you!
Ensure Zero non-Combatant Casualties:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***I am assuming this only means no Civilian Casualties in the Club Solar Shoot-out, but I´m not sure. Got this on my first Run, so it isn´t that hard. Just make sure you don´t hit any Civilians.
Eliminate rappelling Enemies:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Right after you push open the big door with Salazar in the Mall, you will go down some stairs and end up in the outdoor Area. There will be a Helicopter dropping exactly 5 enemies. If you want to get a head start on this Challenge, there are a few rappeling Enemies in the Mall, too. Just stay on the right side and you will see them.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x25) in the outdoor Area:
Incapacitate Enemy Personnel (x20) using Combatant Suppression Knuckles:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Right after you get out of the Solar Club, a Security Guy will open the Armory. Inside will be a Closet that you can open with your Access Kit. Inside you´ll find the Knuckles. Now just start knocking People out with them, using your Normal Melee attack. I truly did not expect Enemies to start puking the first Time I used them.
Protect ASD resource from Destruction:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***To the Left of the Big Door that you push open with Salazar is a room that you can open with the Access Kit. Inside it is the ASD. I don´t think that it even can be destroyed, because it doesn´t do anything. It drives back into the Mall, that you just came out of and looks at all the friviously clothed Ladies running around.

Mission 7: Suffer With Me
(This Mission is truly worthy of this name. You will get angry while going for the Challenges.)
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
Perform a Knife Throw at enemy guard Post:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one is not Missable. Right after you land at the beach, you will go up a ladder. Mason will kill one Guy and another one shows up. Throw the Knife at him.
Survive an Enemy RPG Blast which causes enemy Collateral Damage:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Credit for this Solution goes to Nikad Ronnoc:
"Also I managed to bag the collateral RPG damage in 'Suffer With Me' , you do not need the vest as RPG's will never kill you in 1 hit on recruit, just severely damage you, of course getting it wouldn't go a miss either. I actually got this one randomly inside a building somewhere, while I was rushing through it to find the intel one guy was shooting me behind a desk in an office, I rushed past ignoring him then another guy appeared from the corner in front of me with an RPG and shot at me, missing me directly but damaging me, also killing the guy behind me, then it updated career record? Weird, however I do know another spot that I was going to try and get it, after the part in the mission where Mason hands the Chinese guy the gun without ammo, go outside and there should be another battle, instead of killing everyone throw a nightingale at the stairs where the objective tells you to go, if you look up there will be at least 2 enemies on top of the building with an RPG, where you threw the nightinggale, hang around that area and since there is a bunch of enemies, when the RPG is fired it will most likely hit you and about 2 other guys, sorry for the poor explanation of where exactly it is, not sure ow to explain it... I also got the distract 8 enemies at once with the nightingale at this location."
We have another Tip for this Challenge by Disturbed x360a: "Was struggling with the RPG one as well until I found a really good and easy spot. When you go outside next to Noriega's jet there will be lots of enemies and one on the balcony of the building infront has an RPG. Stand next to any enemy and let him shoot. There are no stupid checkpoints at this part so I think it's the best spot to get it."
Destroy Noriega´s Private Jet:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***The Jet is out in the Open, the Rocket Launcher you´re supposed to use to destroy it is not. Seriously, I haven´t found one. Maybe you´re supposed to take one from the Enemies but I don´t know. Everytime I got to the Roof to take it from their Cold, Dead Fingers, the Jet was already destroyed by somebody else. So I just took the SMAW along in my Load-out.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x10) with Truck Mounted MG:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Next to the Private Jet will be the Truck. Now, whatever you do, don´t kill anyone around the Jet with your normal Guns or you will not have enough Enemies left for the Challenge because of Mason the Douchebag. Just run out of the Hangar, straight to the Truck and don´t release the right Trigger until "Career Record Updated" pops up. I even used a Flashbang to keep Mason longer in the Hangar and buy me a few seconds.
Destroy Enemy ZPU (x1):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Or1g1nal S1nn3r pointed out that a ZPU is a Anti-Air Aircraft Gun. Disturbed x360a has written a Detailed Guide for us: "Finally found the ZPU. A few of the explanations going round are a little vague so I'll improve on them. After Mason gives Noriega a pistol with no ammo you will be told to head for a Church. Enter the streets and stay to the left. You will eventually come up to a point with a 4x4 with a turret on it. Take a sharp right and you should see lots of enemies and one of your allied tanks moving forward. Right at the end of this road is a turret, this is how you will know you are at the right part. Near your allied tank there should be 2 people on a roof and one of them has an RPG. The building next to it has the ZPU on top of it. It's a little hard to spot so you will want to go to the right again and you will see a broken circular structure surrounded by trees and benches. To also identify the building you can go around the other side and there should be a sign that says GRAN Fans Herramientas. At the most northern part of the top of the building is the ZPU. You can destroy it with a regular gun it does not have to be a launcher or grenade." One more thing, if you reach the Church Courtyard, you´ve gone too far.
Distract Enemy Personnel (x8) with Nightingale Grenades at the same Time:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You find the Nightingale Grenades just before you walk onto the roof of the Hangar. They are in a wooden box that you can only open with the Access Kit. I kept them until I was at the part in the Streets where you have to run around with Noriega. There are 2 big, Park-Like Areas here. A lot of enemies are standing around in the second "Park" and I just started throwing 4 Nightingale Grenades around here and completed the Challenge.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x15) with IR Strobe:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You find these hidden behind a Fence that you can only open with the Access Kit. Once you get to the Streets where you run around with Noriega, always stay as far to the Left as possible and you will find the Fence. Now find yourself a lot of Enemies and throw the IR Strobes between their legs. A big Helicopter will show up and Kill `em all. If you run out of Strobes, there are a bunch of Ammo Boxes in the Area, all of them on the Left Side of the Streets.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x8) in the Clinic:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Zedymieon77 has a little tip for this one: "for the clinic kills in the same mission, I started to shoot them immediately the first possible second. After my first gun ran out of ammo, I switched to my secondary and finished the rest of them off. I went from an SMG to an AR."
Another Tip by someone who wants to stay Anonymous: "it's probably best to use a full auto gun with fast mag perk and attatchment. Then when you see the injured woman and the guy busts through the wall just start spraying the left side of the corridor most guys will just run straight into it."

*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This is the challenge that will make you start hating Humanity. Unless you´re extremely Lucky, you´re gonna have to do the Mission over and over again. And you´re not gonna die because of the Enemies or some other bullshit. NO, it´s so cheap and pathetic it really makes me want to hurt myself. At the end of the Clinic part you´re gonna pull up Noriega through a hole in the Wall, a hole that he just threw himself out of. Thankfully you beat him up for that. But then the Shit starts hitting the Fan. You will be forced to run through a narrow Hallway, Enemy bullets coming in from all sides, hitting every Micrometer of your Body. And then you´re supposed jump over a giant gap to a balcony. You will die. Again and Again. And this is the very end of the Mission, you can´t die after this part anymore. It´s like Treyarch made this deliberately. If you want to get this Challenge done, you´re gonna have to sit through all the Talking over and over again until the Earcancer eats through your Brain. Why is there no godamn "Skip to the Action" button in the Pause Menu?
Luckily, HiChui has some Tips for us: "Do NOT sprint right away, in fact I never sprinted once during the hallway dash until I was about 5 or so steps away from the jump and I survived, it's just hard to keep track with all the distractions. You won't die from the ship (at least I haven't even in Veteran) unless you stand still"
Mission 8: Achilles’ Veil
Note: Take a strong Weapon with a lot of Ammunition like the MK48 Light Machine Gun with you for this Mission, it will help. Also, take EMP Grenades with you.
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
Destroy Enemy Quad Drones (x20):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Take a strong Weapon with a lot of Ammunition like the MK48 Light Machine Gun with you for this one. Right at the beginning of the Mission will be about 10 Quad Drones. Try to destroy as many of them as you can. As you go through the Mission you will occasionally come across a few others, always aim for them first before someone else destroys them. If you don´t get the Challenge done before Mason takes over, don´t worry. There will be 5 more at the end of the Mission when you reach the Bridge.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x20) with Sword:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You find the Sword at the beginning of the Mission. After Menendez runs away, run out of the Palace onto the Street and to the left. In the first house there is the Sword hidden inside a Closet that you can only open with the Access Kit. Then just start slicing pixels up. Try combining this Challenge with the next one.
Melee Enemy Personnel (x20) while using Optical Camo:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You find the Optical Camo right at the beginning of the Mission. After Menendez pulls a Sarah Palin on the Stage of the Palace, run to the right and head towards the Street. You will see a Doorway leading into the Palace to the left of you. In there you will find the Optical Camo inside a Wooden Box that you can only open with the Access Kit. Turn it on and surprise some People. Try combining this Challenge with the previous one.
Destroy Enemy Quad Drones (x8) with Turret:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***When you´re at the big open area, where a big Battle is going on with a lot of AGDs and Quad drones, hug the Walls on the right. Always keep going right until you get to a Gate that you can only open with the Access Kit. Go through it and you will end up on a Balcony with a turret. Mount it and start aiming only for the Quad Drones. When you run out of Drones to shoot, wait a few seconds till new ones appear. Altogether there should be about ten of them. This part can get really annoying, too. You will be shot at from all sides constantly, your Vision will be always blurred and eventually the Turret will be destroyed. Just hope that you can destroy enough before that happens. You can also go for the next Challenge with this Turret. Mystic KnightIV has a really nice tip for this one: "the one challenge where you need to Destroy Enemy Quad Drones (x8) with Turret on Achilles’ Veil I could not get to even four without the turret blowing up or something so i skipped this until I saw the perk "Hardened" where you flinch less when you get shot helped out so much I was able to aim and blow up the quads alot faster."
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x5) by exploding Vehicles:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Get to the Turret mentioned in the Previous Challenge. Try to not kill any Enemies on the way to it. Once you´re at the turret, aim for all the Cars standing around beneath you. You should get the 5 kills easily.
Destroy Enemy ASDs (x4) while disabled:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Make sure you have EMP Grenades in your Load-out. At the large Battle that happens shortly before Mason takes over are about 6 ASDs driving around. Stun them first with a EMP grenade and then destroy them. If you run out of Grenades, run back a little to the Area before this. You will find a Ammo Box next to a Dead guy holding a Rocket Launcher.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x5) as VTOL Gunner:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***For this Challenge you need to try shooting Mendenez instead of Killing Harper. As soon as Farid dies, you will take over Mason in the VTOL and you will be able to use the Minigun. Just kill 5 Enemies, pretty easy.

Mission 9: Odysseus
Note: Take along your favourite Sniper Rifle for the "Protect SEAL Team" Challenge. You can also use the Storm PSR Gun, which is the Gun I used for this. You can find it under "Special" in the Weapon Selection Menu. Also, take along EMP Grenades.
WARNING: A Bug accured for me once in this Level. NO Enemies spawned anymore after I got out of the Bridge. If this happens to you and you want to do the Kill related Challenges, you can just start the Level again from the Beginning.
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
Locate Gift in Masons State Room:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Right after Menendez runs away (again), you will open a door. A bunch of Enemies and a Sentry Turret on the Ceiling will start attacking you. To your right you will see a Doorway. Go through it and open the Door right in Front of you. The Gift will be lying in front of you on the Closet. Btw: What is it supposed to be? What does it say?
Incapacitate Enemy Personnel (x20) using Combatant Suppression Knuckles:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You find the Knuckles right after Mendenez disappears. They are in a suitcase on the Table. You need the Access Kit to open it. Just start beating up People with it until you have 20 Knock-outs.
Provide Sniper Overwatch for SEAL Team Advance across Flight deck:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***I used the Storm PSR Gun for this one (It´s the Sniper with Thermal Vision, that can load up Shots and shoot through Walls). After Mason tries to Deactivate the Security System on the Bridge, you will go down some Stairs. Downstairs, go aorund the Corner to the Left and you will stand right where you need to be for this Challenge, you can´t miss it. From up here you now have to kill Every Enemy that comes rushing towards the SEAL Team on the Ground. With the Storm PSR it is very easy since you can even shoot through multiple Covers to kill the Enemies. Also, the Gun can see though Walls.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x10) with Security Turret:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After Salazar runs away, a Door will open on top of some Stairs. Go through it and fight your Way through the Area behind it. You will end up at another Door. You walk through it and you will be at the Bridge of the Ship. Go through the small Hallway ( You can destroy the Sentry Turret that is hanging here) and then to the Right. In the room in front of you will be a Switchbox that you can Hack into with your Access Kit. Afterwards you will have Control of the Sentry Turret in the Bridge. Now just start Killing everyone around you till you get the Challenge. Remember: You have a 360° view here. Look around everywhere to find every Enemy.
Destroy Security Turret (x3) while Disabled:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You need EMP Grenades for this one. The First Turret will be right in front of you after you walk through the First Door. Disable it with a EMP Grenade and then destroy it with normal Gunfire. There are 2 more Turrets at the Bridge. If you don´t have it by then, don´t worry, there are still at least 3 more on the way.
Eliminate Airborne Enemies (x8) before they Land:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you disposed of Salazar, you will end up on the Flight Deck. 2 airborne Enemies will already land in front of you, so you can get a Head Start here. Afterwards, look to your right and you will see 4 Spots where the Enemies will always land. As long as you don´t come to close, they will respawn endlessly. Just pick them out of the Air until you get the Challenge. This can be a little annoying as the Airborne Enemies seem to withstand more Damage than Normal Enemies. Just keep at it and you will eventually get it.
Direct CLAW to eliminate Enemy Personnel (x5):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you get up to the Flight Deck, go to the Left. There will be a CLAW resting its lazy Ass there. Behind it will be some Debris that you can Move with your Access Kit. Afterwards you will be able to give the CLAW targets to shoot Grenades at. Warning: This will seriously piss you off. It seems like the thing can only throw Grenades in front of its Feet, it almost never hits its target. Also, it will slowly walk forward on its own and eventually stop the Enemies from respawning. So this Challenge includes a lot of Luck. But hey, if you fail you only have to redo the whole Mission, so it´s not that bad, right?
Get to Extraction in under 90 Seconds:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one is Easy. The Counter starts as soon as you reach the Flight Deck. Run straight to the Helicopter and only Kill enemies that are in your way. If you took along Flashbangs, this will be even easier, but they are not necessary.

Mission 10: Cordis Die
Note: Don´t change your Secondary Weapon for this Mission, which is the Storm PSR. There is no Challenge for this Weapon, but it will help with a few of the Challenges.
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
100% Impact Ratio with SAM Engagement on Highway:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one can be a pain in the ass, but at least it´s right at the Beginning of the Mission. You can´t miss this SAM Engagement as it is part of the Mission. Here is what you have to do: As soon as you control the SAM, look around you to find the Enemy drones. Once you find them, wait for the SAM to lock on to every Drone at the same time (Red circles around them). Don´t worry if they are already flying over you, the SAM will still hit them. The only problem with this Challenge is: If you don´t find the Drones fast enough, it could happen that one of your Rockets misses and it is really hard to tell if one of them misses with all the shit that is going on. But at least this is the very beginning of the Mission. Also: The "Career Record Updated" won´t pop up until you regain control of your Character.
Perform Headshot (x10) Sniper Kills from the upper Highway:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***For this one you have to stay up on the Highway, NOT go down with the others. You are gonna have to be quick or your Teammates will take out all the Enemies and you won´t have enough left. But there is a little Trick: Take out the Machine Gunners on the Trucks last. I noticed that, if you shoot them first, your Teammates will instantly kill everyone else around them. Also, definetely use the Storm PSR for this one, as you can easily spot all the Enemies with its Thermal Vision.
Direct Quad Drones to Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x8):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After your Truck is chrashed into by another Truck, you will crawl out onto the Street. Directly in Front of you will be a overthrown Truck, where the Quad Drones are in. You need the Access Kit to free them. Once you have them, just use them to kill the Enemies until you have the 8 kills.
Rescue Trapped SSA in damaged Vehicle:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***For this one you need to be fast. After the crash, quickly take out the CLAW that is coming from your Left with the Storm PSR. Then walk on and another CLAW will appear that you have to take out. To the right of this Second CLAW will be a Overthrown Truck, just like the one you´ve been driving in. The trapped guys are in there and you need the Access Kit to free them. But you really have to be fast for this one or a few Rocket Launcher Guys on the Rooftops to the left will blow up the Truck before you can Rescue them.
Destroy Enemy Drones (x30) using SAM on roof:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you disposed of the Second CLAW, you will come to a Shopping Center-Like area. Enter the first building on the Left. Run straight to the back of the room and up some escalators. On the top, look to your left and you will find a Door that you can open with your Access Kit. Go through it, up to the Rooftop and mount the SAM engagement there. This time you don´t have to watch if your Rockets all hit their Targets, so just keep on spamming the Rockets until the SAM engagement is eventually destroyed and hope you made enough kills. Btw: What is a SAM engagement doing on the Roof of a Shopping Center?
Protect G20 Cougar at the Intersection:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you get out of the Shopping Center Area, the G20 Truck will be directly in front of you. You really don´t have to do much for this one. Get out your Storm PSR and look at the Roof right behind the Truck. 2 Rocket Launcher guys will show up. Kill them before they fire their rockets. That´s it.
Destroy Drones (x3) with one Shot:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This is after you get to fly the Jet. You will be protecting the Convoy, a bunch of Drones show up and you will fly after them. I got this Challenge just through normal Gameplay, so it shouldn´t be that hard. You have to use the Skyburst Rockets for this, which you can shoot by pressing LB. BUT: Numerous people reported to me that they couldn´t use the Skyburst Rockets, this seems to be a Glitch. Legend MDD DK 1 confirmed what you have to do, to avoid this Glitch: Play the Mission on the Difficulty Level you used on your first Playthrough. Maybe Treyarch will release a Patch or something to Fix this, but until then, you´re gonna have to do the Challenge this way.
Protect all G20 Vehicles:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one is really easy. Once you get to fly the jet, stay always a little bit behind the convoy to see the enemies approaching. Keep on firing rockets at everything in sight and you will get this one easily.

Mission 11: Judgement Day
Note: Again, take along the Storm PSR with you for this Mission, it really helps a lot. Also, take EMP Grenades with you.
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
Avoid ALL Anti-Air Missiles:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Thanks to spxyu02 for this one:
"Mission 11: Judgement Day >> Avoid ALL Anti-Air Missiles -- What I found helpful was to take a few tries and just see how far left and right (and forward/back) you could strafe through the sky, just to get a sense of the space. Next, I hugged the back/bottom left (hold L control stick at about 7 or 8 o'clock), which let me avoid most missiles, but I'd still get "stuck" in that corner if when exploded just center of my position. If you ever see the red damage arcs on your screen, just restart the mission, opening scene isn't too long. On my good run, I actually stayed close to the center, mostly diving down to the bottom left as my safe zone when explosions were in my face. You receive the notification when you regain control of your character on the ground."
Anothers Tip by our Anonymous Helper: "As far as I can tell these don't hit you. They explode leaving a large fiery cloud which is quiet easy to avoid if you're looking out for them." I can confirm that you just need to avoid the fire Clouds caused by the Rockets to get this Challenge.
Destroy ALL Laser Turrets:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you land, you need to look at the Roof Tops in Front of you. The Laser Turrets are all in plain sight from the big, open starting Area, they are all pretty much lined up. I think there about 8 of them. Take them out with the Storm PSR loaded up shots. Don´t go further up the Stairs until you destroyed them all and the "Career Record Updated" pops up.
Destroy Enemy Quad Drones (x3) while Disabled:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You need EMP grenades for this one. There are plenty of Quad Drones flying around the CLAW near the stairs after you land. Disable them with the EMP Grenades, they will fly into the ground and you will need to destroy them with normal Gunfire.
Perform Sniper Kills (x10) from more than 40m distance:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one is really easy. After you land, run forward until you the Stairs are in plain Sight. Take out your Storm PSR and kill all the enemies in Front of you. Just get as much distance between you and the Enemies as possible and pick them off one by one. Remember: The Loaded shots of the PSR can shoot trough multiple Covers. If you don´t get the Challenge at the Stairs, don´t worry. You still have plenty enemies that are far away to accomplish this.
Melee Camouflaged Enemy Personnel (x3):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Another easy one. There are plenty of Camouflaged enemies running around and the camouflage is really just a joke, they are SOOO easy to spot. Just melee 3 of them and you have this one.
Direct Quad Drones to eliminate the enemy CLAW:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***spxyu02 and DarkLordRaptor pointed out that the Quad Drones are in a Box on the far left of the big, open Area you land in at the beginning of the Mission. You need the Access Kit to open the Box. Once you have them, look for a CLAW to destroy. Even though these Quad Drones can shoot rockets, it will still take a while to destroy the CLAW. Just tell the Drones to keep firing until it says the Magical Words: "Career Record Updated".
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x5) with one Strike of the Kinetic projectile Weapon:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***After you run up the big stairs in the beginning, you will stand in front of a small house with a bunch of enemies in it. Run through the house and behind it you will find a Truck. You can open this Truck with your Access Kit and inside you will find the Projectile Weapon. Right next to this truck is a little Construction site, run into it. About 8 camouflaged enemies will appear. Direct the Projectile Weapon in the middle of them and back up a little as the impact is pretty big. You should easily get the more than 5 kills at once here.
Protect ASD resource to the Objective Location:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Shortly before you reach the big Conference Room, there will be a Terminal on the Second Floor which will release a ASD that will fight for you. Don´t release it yet. First kill all enemy resistance on the way to the Conference Room (3 enemy ASDs and a bunch of normal enemies). Then run back to the Terminal and release the ASD. It will drive bored and confused to the Conference Room and you get the Challenge.
Collect Intel (x3):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***If you don´t get by now what you need to do to accomplish this Challenge, I swear to God, I will come to your house and strike you down with my mighty Hammer of Justice!

Destroy CLAWs (x2) using only Soldiers:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Not very hard. The CLAWs will respawn shortly after you destroyed them. Only use Soldiers who have Frag Grenades on them. If you run out of grenades, just switch to another soldier who has them. A CLAW will go down after about 3-4 Grenades.
Use only 3 Network Intruders to Complete the Mission:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Really Easy, got this on my First Try. Always command your troops near the Objectives by holding LB. Take control of Soldiers yourself to take out Enemy troops faster.
Complete Mission with more than 2:00 min remaining:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Again, really easy one. You should be able to do this without a problem on your first Try (unless you were playing on Veteran straight away).
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x10) with Headshots:
Melee Enemy Personnel (x15):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You need to use Soldiers for this one. The Enemies are all marked on the Map and there is an Endless Supply of them. Just run around knocking people out until you have this.
Destroy Enemy ASD (x3) as a CLAW:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Your CLAW won´t show up until you´ve taken over the Second Objective. Once it arrives, take control of it and search the Map for ASDs OR: Place all your troops in the place you start in and every Enemy will come running to you.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x15) with explosives:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You can do this with every available Unit. Some Soldiers have Frag Grenades, CLAWs can shoot Grenades and ASDs can shoot Rockets. I chose Soldiers, because they are the fastest to get around the Map. When I ran out of Grenades, I just chose another Soldier.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x15) while they are stunned:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You need Soldiers with non-Frag Grenades for this. Some Soldiers have EMP Grenades, some have Stun Grenades, both work. Run around the Map and throw grenades at People. Once they stumble around confused, finish them. If you run out of Grenades, choose another Soldier.
Run over Enemy Personnel (x20) with ASD:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***ASDs become available after you took over the first Objective. This one can be a little annoying, because sometimes you just drive through People without killing them. Keep your other troops clustered in One Location, so they don´t end up stealing your Kills. Keep on driving through People until it says "Career Record Updated".
Complete the Mission in "Tactial View" only:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one will be no problem. As soon as you get control of your Character, Press the BACK button. Basically all you need to do is just send ALL your troops from Objective to Objective until you´ve won, there is really no Tactic involved what-so-ever. One thing: At the beginning of the Mission you only have one troop of Soldiers. Until you get more, you need to tell them on what on enemies to shoot at specifically or they are gonna get massacred. Apparently they don´t know what to do with enemies unless you tell them. Also, they will not start taking over Objectives unless you tell them to. Point your Crosshair at the Objective and press RT or LB and they place a Network Intruder. When you get more troops, just overrun one Objective after the other until you´ve won.
I.E.D.:
Note: This Mission can get a little annoying because of one Challenge, but other than that, it´s extremely easy.
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x3) while they are planting IED:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***You will get this one without really trying. First of all, choose the Quad Drones to do this in. Leave all your troops with the Convoy and always fly a little bit ahead of the Convoy. The guys who plant IEDs will start appearing as soon as your Convoy reaches the Second Tank. When you see People on there knees doing something, shoot them. If you don´t have this challenge completed by the time you reach the 4th tank, don´t worry. There will be plenty more of the IED guys in the Canyon next to Ammunition Depot near the end of the Mission.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x10) on horseback:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Very easy. Choose the Quad Drones and always stay a little bit ahead of the Convoy. The Soldiers on horses will start appearing soon after you destroyed the first Tank. There are plenty of them and you should be finished with the Challenge before you even reach the Second tank.
Convoy never stopped by the Presence of an IED:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This is the annoying Challenge. First of all, choose the Quad Drones. And if a Marker appears on the Screen saying "Destroy", it means you´ve failed the Challenge. Always look out for the guys on the ground planting more IEDs. Sometimes they even manage to plant them inbetween 2 Trucks. And your Allies are of course often to occupied shooting at your trucks instead at the Enemies because the Trucks are between them. So, always watch the map for Soldiers appearing on the ground and ignore the ones spawning on mountains. I am gonna give you a rundown of all the IEDs that are planted from the Beginning. The First Set of IEDs is next to the Second Tank. The Second Set is right next to the previous one. The Third Set is to the right of the 3rd Tank. The Fourth Set is to the Right of the 4th Tank. The Fifth and Final Set is beneath the Wooden Bridges next to the Ammunition Depot near the End of the Mission. Have Fun.
Destroy Tanks (x3) with Kinetic Projectile Weapon:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***The Projectile Weapon will become available soon after the Mission starts. It is handled like one of your Troops. You choose it with the D-Pad and then give a Target. After a few Seconds a Missile will come Crashing down, destroying everything in the vicinity. After every Shot the Weapon has to reload for about a minute. There are 4 Tanks in total, so you can destroy one of them with your ASDs. Here is what you need to do: As soon as you gain Control, fly to the Left and there will be the first Tank. Destroy it with the Projectile Weapon. Now go back to the Convoy and wait for the Weapon to recharge. As soon as its finished, fly towards the Second Tank and destroy it, too. Your Convoy should be now very close to this Tank. If you want, you can use a little Trick: Don´t destroy the IEDs that are lying in the way of the Convoy. The Convoy will just sit there and wait because the A.I. will not destroy IEDs by themselves. Here you can just wait until the Weapon is recharged again and destroy the third Tank.
Destroy Helo with Kinetic Projectile Weapon:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***The Projectile Weapon will become available soon after the Mission starts. It is handled like one of your Troops. You choose it with the D-Pad and then give a Target. After a few Seconds a Missile will come Crashing down, destroying everything in the vicinity. After every Shot the Weapon has to reload for about a minute. There are 3 Helos in total in the Mission, but it can actually be a pain to destroy even one of them with the Projectile Weapon, because your ASDs will automatically aim for them and destroy them before the Projectile Weapon hits them. The First Helo will appear when the Convoy reaches the 4th Tank. Here is what you need to do: As soon as you´ve destroyed the 4th tank with your ASDs. send them as far away from the convoy as possible. The Helo will come out of the Canyon where the Ammuntion Depot is. When it appears, target it immidiately with the Weapon and wait for it to be vaporized. The Weapon is pretty accurate and never missed a Target when I used it, so if you do it this way, the Challenge shouldn´t be a Problem.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x20) as Quad Drone:
Run over Enemy Personnel (x10) as ASD:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one can be a little annoying, because sometimes you just drive through People instead of actually killing them. At the beginning of the Mission, switch to the ASD. Soon after you destroyed the 1st Tank, about 30 Guys on Horses will spawn everywhere. Try to Mow down as many as Possible. You should get the Challenge right here, if not. don´t worry. At the end of the Mission will be about 60 people running around on the Ground near the Ammuntion Depot. You will surely get it done here.
Use only ASDs to destroy Tanks:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Another easy one, but: YOU have to control the ASD, ordering them to destroy the tanks will NOT work. So, at the beginning of the Mission, switch to a ASD. The First Tank will be pretty much next to you on the left. Shoot Rockets at it with LT, after 4 Rockets it will be destroyed. Now, always stay ahead of your convoy, because you don´t want anyone else shooting at the Tanks. I just drove past all the horses and straight to the next tank. The next one will probably destroy you, but don´t worry, just take control of another ASD and get ahead of the Convoy to destroy the remaining 2 Tanks.
Keep ALL Vehicles in Convoy Safe:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***This one isn´t very hard. Always keep all your Troops ahead of the Convoy to quickly take out all spawning enemies. Use ASDs and the Projectile Weapon to Take out the Tanks and Helos. Also, take always care of the IEDs before the Convoy reaches them, as they can take away more than half of their Health Bar, if you blow them up next to them! After you´ve taken care of all the Tanks and 2 Helos, move all your Troops to the Entrance of the Canyon where the Ammunition Depot is located in. The Enemies will spawn and instantly die. One more thing: At the very end, about 30 Enemies will run out of the Exit to the Level, so have your Troops all stationed there.
Complete the Mission in "Tactical View" Only:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Pretty Easy. The same as usual: Always keep your Troops ahead of the Convoy to quickly dispose of Spawning Enemies. By now you should know where all the Enemy spawns are and where all the IEDs are located, so this will be a breeze. Speaking of IEDs: You´re gonna have to tell your Quad Drones to destroy them, because they won´t do it themselves.

Melee Enemy Personnel (x10):
Eliminate Enemy Personnel (x20) using Sentry Turret:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Use the Turret on the Roof. Place One Squad of Soldiers and the CLAW near the fence where the Enemies jump over (near the Roof you start the Mission on) and the other Squad by the Far Away objective near the Jungle. Most Enemies will now spawn Directly in front of your Turret, giving you plenty of Targets to pick apart.
Eliminate Enemy Personnel as CLAW (x10):
Complete Mission with Enemy never lowering Defense Field:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***I´m not quite sure what they mean by this, but I got this Challenge on my first try of the Mission. I am assuming it means that they cannot destroy all your Objectives, but I don´t know. I played the Mission about 10 Times now and they never managed to destroy a Single Objective. So, just don´t let them destroy anything and you will get this one.
Eliminate Enemy ASD (x3) using only Sentry Turrets:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Use the Turret on the Roof. Place One Squad of Soldiers and the CLAW near the fence where the Enemies jump over (near the Roof you start the Mission on) and the other Squad by the Far Away objective near the Jungle.

Destroy Enemy Quad Drones (x12):
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***There will be plenty of Quad Drones to destroy. Use whatever Troop Type you´re most comfortable with. I personally combined this one with all the other Sentry Turret Challenges.

Complete the Mission in "Tactical View" only:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Place One Squad of Soldiers and the CLAW near the fence where the Enemies jump over (near the Roof you start the Mission on) and the other Squad by the Far Away objective near the Jungle. Most Enemies will now spawn Directly in front of the Turret on the Roof and it will easily kill most of them. The ones that survive will be picked apart by the rest of your troops. You will pretty much sit this one out.
Second Chance:
Note: Mostly Easy Mission. 2 Challenges can be Annoying, if you don´t act quick.

After you disposed of them, run to the Intersection where these 3 Drones were and look to your left again. There should be at least 2 more. If you don´t act quick enough, your douchebag colleagues will destroy them and you won´t be able to finish the Challenge anymore.

Also, you need to Cut the ROPES THAT BIND HER TO THE CHAIR, Arrrr, for the Timer to stop.
Complete the Mission in "Tactical View" only:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***Pretty Easy. Just send your guys from house to House until they find Chloe. Target the enemies for them ocasionally or your Troops will get ANNIHALATED.

While you´re going for this, always watch out for Enemy Soldiers. They can kill you pretty quick on this Map. Also, leave your troops at the starting point, so they can´t steal you any Kills.
