GTA V Military Base Infiltration and Rhino Tank Acquisition Guide
Grand Theft Auto V, despite its age, remains incredibly popular. While GTA VI is anticipated, GTA V continues to thrive thanks to consistent updates and engaging content. This guide focuses on acquiring the coveted Rhino tank from the heavily guarded military base, Lago Zancudo.
Locating Lago Zancudo Military Base
Lago Zancudo is situated south of North Chumash beach (see image for precise location). The base is heavily fortified, presenting a challenge for infiltration.
Infiltrating Lago Zancudo
Two primary methods exist for infiltrating the base:
Air Infiltration: Approaching by air (helicopter or plane) triggers a two-star wanted level upon airspace entry, escalating to four stars and guided missile attacks if you proceed. Parachuting offers a riskier but potentially successful approach.
Ground Infiltration: A high-speed vehicle allows you to potentially jump over the surrounding terrain, landing between the outer fences undetected. Alternatively, skillful maneuvering might allow you to bypass the main checkpoint if the guard isn't attentive. A motorcycle provides a similar, though potentially more precarious, option.
Acquiring the Rhino Tank
Once inside, locate the Rhino tank. This requires a stealthy approach:
- Engage the Rhino tank with gunfire, then quickly seek cover.
- Repeat this process until the driver abandons the vehicle.
- Eliminate the driver and claim the Rhino tank.
Note: Securing the Rhino tank instantly grants a four-star wanted level. Immediately seek refuge in a tunnel to evade helicopter attacks.
Additional Military Vehicles
Beyond the Rhino tank, Lago Zancudo holds other valuable vehicles:
- Titan chopper
- Buzzard attack chopper
- P-996 LAZER fighter jet
This guide provides a comprehensive strategy for infiltrating the military base and acquiring the powerful Rhino tank, along with other military hardware in GTA V. Remember to exercise caution and utilize the environment to your advantage.
