    Load up The Covenant level from level select, checkpoint Bravo. You'll see a Phantom (covenant dropships) dropping off at an island. Use your missiles and chaingun to destroy it. Once destroyed get out of your Hornet and die. Kill the same Phantom. Rinse and repeat.

    saw141This method also worked for me after the patch. I was able to do it on the Easy-Anti Cheat Enabled version on Steam. I had 33% progress and only had to destroy two more Phantoms.

    This achievement can be unlocked on the mission Covenant, Checkpoint Bravo. Once you have a Hornet, an enemy Phantom can be shot down on your way toward the mission waypoint. When you near the objective structure, two friendly (green) Phantoms will stop and hover. Destroy them both. Achievement unlocked. Reload last checkpoint if you feel bad.

    z Mr Man zYour solution is helpful. But, you forgot to mention that it's on the mission "Covenant" at rally point Bravo.

    Elite1111111111Even though the achievement is messed up and doesn't track just 1 playthrough of the level, I had been wondering how you were 'supposed' to do it. +1

    "This method was done on an Xbox One console, "Newman96" did it on a Series X so it works on both consoles"

    I achieved the achievement today on October 1, 2023, You will need a physical copy of the MCC ⚠️

    Uninstall MCC and clear console saves

    Take the console offline and install MCC using Disk

    With the console offline open the MCC select the
    The Covenant Cheekpoint Bravo,
    destroyed 1 enemy Phatom and 2 allies (Green Phatom)

    After meeting the achievement requirements, exit the Hornet and try to get a cheekpoint near the forerunner structure door.

    Go back to the MCC MENU and put the console Online again, the MCC will ask to update by closing the game You will see the achievement in your Xbox notifications
