Overview
The watchful eye in Vice City's sky. Equipped with high-intensity searchlights and FLIR thermal tracking to illuminate criminals hiding in back alleys.
In Grand Theft Auto VI, vehicle handling and weight have been dramatically overhauled compared to GTA V. The Maverick Police Helicopter benefits from heavier physics simulation, realistic roll dynamics, and authentic torque curves designed to reward skilled drivers on both Leonida's open freeways and narrow downtown alleys.

Dual-Spool Turboshaft Engine Assembly
Rapid vertical climb rate outpaces ground pursuit. High altitude enables radar evasion across Leonida airspace.
Tail rotor damage instantly initiates uncontrolled autorotation flat-spin.
Customization Options
Searchlight gimbal controls, sniper side-seat harnesses, and custom aviation livery packages.
Drivers can take the Maverick Police Helicopter to Rideout Customs in Vice City for extensive tuning packages, or utilize Pay & Spray locations for fast repaints, chase-breaking resprays, and legitimate vehicle re-registration to prevent police despawns.
