An Armadillo in GTA Vice City Stories.

The Armadillo is a helicopter used by Vice City's fire department to put out fires in 1984, the setting of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.

Description

Similar in design to the Bell 412, the Armadillo is a relatively large helicopter that nevertheless possesses relatively good speed, with moderately steep pitches that help increase its acceleration at the expense of losing altitude faster.

The fire department version has a bucket attached by a rope, which is used to carry water from the sea to the fires. Entering a FDVC Armadillo starts a Fire Copter side mission, where the player has to get sea water and use it to take out fires on rooftops. Since the VCN Maverick was cut from VCS, Reni Wassulmaier uses the Armadillo in one of his missions as a news helicopter, hovering over the player. If you don't like the bucket on the helicopter read this, it tells you how to get one without triggering the side mission. The side mission starts when the helicopter is touching the bit of ground under it when it spawns at the Fire Station, first get a car or helicopter and push the Armadillo until it is much further away, enter it and enable the health cheat. Now it shouldn't trigger the side mission and it won't have a bucket attached.
