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. By 1986, the setting of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, the vehicle is not being used.
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.
Locations
- Fire station in Downtown
