Fly Swatter Trophy in Battlefield 4
Fly Swatter
Kill an enemy with the AA mine
How to unlock Fly Swatter
In order to unlock AA mines, you first have to complete assignment “Death From Below”.
To access the assignment you must be at least rank 10. For the assignment you have to get 3 PDW ribbons and hit down 5 attack air vehicles (jets, attack and scout helicopters - basically all air vehicles except transport helicopters) with rocket launchers. For the PDW ribbon you have to use engineer class specific weapons PDWs and get 5 kills in a round with them. For hitting down the attack air vehicles you can use rocket launchers such as RPGs, SRAWs, Stingers, Iglas, etc. Note that you don’t have to complete these requirements in a single round so it can be done in multiple matches.
After you’ve unlocked the AA mines, comes the tricky part – getting a kill with it. AA mines replace launchers and you can carry and deploy up to 2 of them at the same time. AA mines do about 30% of damage so there’s no way to instantly destroy an aircraft with full health. You have to deploy the AA mines on the ground and once an enemy aircraft is in their range they will shoot automatically.
There are multiple ways you can get a kill with them, for example, play on a big, open map and wait on a building’s roof. Have a friend deploy an ammo-box for you and then just spam the AA mines (thanks to NSS13 for the tip). Alternatively, you can wait for your teammates to try shooting down choppers with stingers/iglas/heat-seekers and then deploy your AA mines after the enemy pilot has used up their flares.
If you want to boost the trophy, have a friend in the opposing team get a either an attack or scout helicopter and meet-up on a remote place on the map. Note that since AA mines do such little damage you first have to damage the chopper with other means. For example, you can have your boosting partner land the chopper, damaged it with your repair tool and leave it with 50% health and then deploy your AA mines to get a kill.
