==Mission==
Carl appears out of the abandoned AC tower at the [[Verdant Meadows]] airstrip he has been using recently to see undercover government agent [[Mike Toreno|Michael "Mike" Toreno]] who has promised to secure his incarcerated brother and [[Grove Street Families]] leader [[Sweet|Sean "Sweet" Johnson]]'s release. However, he instead finds has Toreno has disappeared, not [[Vertical Bird|fulfilling his]] [[Home Coming|end of the bargain]].  


==Mission==
However, aging hippie and intrigued conspiracy theorist [[The Truth]], who Carl hasn't seen ever since [[Wear Flowers in Your Hair|the last bit of help he provided Carl]], mysteriously appears, revealing to Carl that he knows about Toreno, and, offering him redemption, instructs Carl to steal something of a gizmo from a [[Area 69|restricted government base]] which is, due to its secrecy, not normally located on the map. Dropped off by The Truth in front of an entrance, Carl then makes his way through the base, called [[Area 69]], killing military personnel. He also preferably disables the [[Surface-to-Air Missile|SAM sites]], in an effort to make his escape less difficult. After progressing through the base and massacring soldiers, agents and scientists alike, he finally finds the secret gizmo project, which turns out to be a $60,000,000 [[Jetpack|jetpack]].

*If the player opens the door to the research facility with the keycard, then runs out into the main labs and back, the soldiers will not shoot him. They will not react even if they are injured.

==Reward==
==Reward==
There is no reward for this mission but the mission [[Green Goo]] is unlocked for The Truth and a jetpack is always available near the water tank, the garage and the abandoned AC tower on the eastern part of the airstrip.
There is no reward, surprisingly, but the mission [[Green Goo]] is unlocked. Also, if the [[Las Venturas]] segment mission [[Intensive Care]] is played before, a case highly unlikely due to continuity glitch limitations, much alike the case with [[Customs Fast Track]] and [[Home Coming]], the mission [[Misappropriation]] will be unlocked.

Black Project is a mission in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas given to protagonist Carl "CJ" Johnson by aging hippie The Truth from Verdant Meadows, Bone County, San Andreas.

Note. This mission can only be started between 20:00 and 05:30. Further, if Carl is overweight when attempting to start this mission, The Truth will call him a "fat ass" and tell him to lose some weight beforehand, presumably to make it easier for the jetpack to lift him.

Mission

Carl appears out of the abandoned AC tower at the Verdant Meadows airstrip he has been using recently to see undercover government agent Michael "Mike" Toreno who has promised to secure his incarcerated brother and Grove Street Families leader Sean "Sweet" Johnson's release. However, he instead finds has Toreno has disappeared, not fulfilling his end of the bargain.

However, aging hippie and intrigued conspiracy theorist The Truth, who Carl hasn't seen ever since the last bit of help he provided Carl, mysteriously appears, revealing to Carl that he knows about Toreno, and, offering him redemption, instructs Carl to steal something of a gizmo from a restricted government base which is, due to its secrecy, not normally located on the map. Dropped off by The Truth in front of an entrance, Carl then makes his way through the base, called Area 69, killing military personnel. He also preferably disables the SAM sites, in an effort to make his escape less difficult. After progressing through the base and massacring soldiers, agents and scientists alike, he finally finds the secret gizmo project, which turns out to be a $60,000,000 jetpack.

Carl escapes from Area 69 via the jetpack and takes it to The Truth, who is waiting for him on top of Arco del Oeste. The Truth then abandons Carl, driving off in the Mothership, eager to test out his new Jetpack.

Trivia

  • The mission takes its name from "black project", a term used in the United States and United Kingdom to refers to any highly classified military/defense project that is not made known to the public.
  • The keycard seen in this mission uses the same texture as the ones seen in GTA Vice City's "No Escape?" and GTA San Andreas' "Key to Her Heart" missions.
  • If the player opens the door to the research facility with the keycard, then runs out into the main labs and back, the soldiers will not shoot him. They will not react even if they are injured. Exploiting this glitch is an easy way to complete the mission as there is little cover on the stairwell and the player can die more easily as he runs down the stairs.
  • Strangely, after the mission is completed, the SAM sites are re-activated. This is unlike the mission Vertical Bird, where the SAM sites are temporarily enabled only during the mission.
  • If the player fails the mission by running away too far from Area 69, Carl is automatically transported back to the Verdant Meadows Airstrip. However, the vehicular zone is still available for exploration during the mission.
  • Usually, entry into Area 69 warrants a 5-star wanted level, but this does not apply during the mission.

Reward

There is no reward, surprisingly, but the mission Green Goo is unlocked. Also, if the Las Venturas segment mission Intensive Care is played before, a case highly unlikely due to continuity glitch limitations, much alike the case with Customs Fast Track and Home Coming, the mission Misappropriation will be unlocked.
