The NOOSE Cruiser is the NOOSE variant of the Police Cruiser, appearing in Grand Theft Auto IV.

Description

The NOOSE Cruiser shares the chassis of the Police Cruiser (based on a combination of Ford Crown Victorias), albeit with an LED strobe light bar in place of the Police Cruiser's spinning V-bar, and NOOSE livery rather than that of the LCPD. Performance is generally identical to the Police Cruiser, apart from firmer suspension. The LED light bar dose not make a distorted sound after being crushed or shoot at with a weapon like the Police Cruiser and its V-bar.

The NOOSE Cruiser is called out when a 3-star Wanted level is attained, and is used to create roadblocks. The car serves roughly the same role as the NOOSE Patriot, which is called in at higher Wanted levels. The NOOSE Cruiser's livery is loosely based on the livery of Homeland Security vehicles.

In TBOGT, the NOOSE Cruiser appears to spawn more often than in GTA IV when the player is being chased by the police. It even goes as far as to replace Police Cruisers, which are usually the designated pursuit vehicles when wanted by the police.
