    At the end of this mission you will be ambushed by the Stuka plane along with a bunch of enemies, use any type of weapon to damage the plane. Keep on doing this and eventually an enemy with a Panzerschreck will spawn. This achievement only requires you to get the last hit with either a Pistol or Bazooka, I wouldn’t recommend trying this with a grenade. I tried looking around for another Pistol in this area but couldn’t find one as I swapped it out earlier. There’s a few ammo boxes in this area with infinite ammo in them.

    I got this on Veteran difficulty, but it would be easier on Recruit.

    bbsteviebDidn’t hit shit with the RPG. Took quite some time with the pistol.

    Carmona25Use the mounted turret in the shack till the second wave of enemies show up and then switch to your pistol. If you don’t have your pistol from the beginning of the level I found one in the tent with the map at the first camp.

    Drvnnni got this achievement with a grenade. but here’s the kicker…the plane wasn’t dead yet 😂

    so it’s obtainable before you actually destroy the plane. very odd

    This is a very finicky achievement.

    As the description says, this is obtained in the mission ‘In the rats of Tobruk’ which is the 4th mission. After you destroy 3 tanks a plane called the Suka will spawn in and continuously fly over you until your shoot it down.

    Surprisingly, the easiest way to do this is actually with a pistol rather than a rocket launcher as no rocket launchers in the WW2 era have lock on tracking.

    The pistol I used was the one I started the mission with which is the magnum/revolver. At a guess I would say it took about 20 bullets of this revolver to bring the plane down and unlock the achievement.

    I did it on veteran and the plane didn’t kill me once so it’s fairly easy it’s just a matter of hitting your shots when the plane flys straight over you. There’s ammo boxes in the area if you run out of ammo.

    The link below shows me completing it (sorry it’s on Twitter I couldn’t embed it into this guide)
