Introduction:
Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. is one of the greatest flight games made for the 360. You have 18 campaign missions to go through with 3 different difficulties either singleplayer or with 2-4 co-op over XBL. There is also a XBL Versus play and Team Deathmatch.

You can either get online achievements legit or by boosting with a partner(s) (link). If you decide to get them legit, you'll need some skill (or luck). Some of them are just time consuming (number of kills with different missiles or cannon). After all, if you are into flight simulation games you should already own HAWX.

Step 1: Campaign playthrough on Elite (455)
On your campaign run through on Elite, I recommended you host an XBL co-op game, so anyone can join to help you with the 18 missions on your way. You shouldn't have any problems with the campaign, but if you get stuck somewhere, just wait for a few guys to join your game and then try again. You will earn all your single player achievements as well as difficulties and misc achievements on this run through.

Step 2: Online (480)
The online achievements are quite time consuming and may require you to find a boosting party to cover all of them as they may be impossible otherwise.

Step 3: Cleaning up (65)
You should now have 935 in this game and only have 2 achievements left: General of the Airforce and Fly faster than Mach 2 for 1 hour in campaign. These achievements are just very time consuming and are better left until the end so you can progress in the game without hanging around in various missions.

Conclusion:
The game is fairly straightforward with a few achievements which may cause you to stumble, just team up with a few people to boost and you should have these in no time.

    Completing the campaign on Elite will get you to at least level 20. After the campaign, I suggest to do the online achievements, since online gaming will count towards your leveling up. If you still aren't level 40 after you got all of the other achievements, just check your Pilot records for challenges you can do to boost experience towards it.

  • Kill 2 enemies with Multi Target AA missiles while they are affected by your EMP strike.

    This will be easier to boost instead of trying to earn it in multiplayer. Have two people on the opposite team become damaged below 30 health and get them close to each other so your missiles miss. Fire 2 multi AA and activate EMP when your missiles are bout 1000m away from them. To get credit for the kill they need to get hit while they still have the blue electric around them. Getting hit in the stall caused by EMP doesn't count.

     

  • Hit a target that's closer than 3000m with a Radar Guided missile in multiplayer

    Use Radar Guided missiles and when you have a lock on your enemy, wait for him to be closer than 3000m and then shoot. If you didn't hit, then try again until you make a direct hit.

    Get into a stall with assistance in OFF mode and then level your plane up, then slightly press , but don't push it all the way that you're plane recovers from the stall. When you're about 80m from the ground, push all the way and then hope you're plane recovers from the stall.

     

  • Dodge 10 Radar-Guided missiles without using flares in multiplayer matches.

    You will eventually get this if you can keep dodging missiles. This can be boosted by getting a friend to be on the opposite team. Let them lock on with a radar guided missile and when fired they take their aim off you. This credits you with 1 evasion. You can look for other players in the Achievement Trading Thread.

     

  • Be the Match Leader for a total time of 20 minutes.

    Match Leader is the one who has the most points in a TDM game.
    This is not done in one game. You get points by getting kills, delfecting missiles, kill assists and teamplay. You can look for other players in the Achievement Trading Thread.
