Fort Baxter Airbase first appeared in GTA Vice City, near [[Escobar International Airport]]. There are large | Fort Baxter Airbase first appeared in GTA Vice City, located near [[Escobar International Airport]]. There are large numbers of [[Army|soldiers]] armed with [[M4]]'s guarding the area, making it extremely dangerous to try and gain access to the base; the military defenders have a shoot-on-sight policy, regardless of whether or not the player is armed. Furthermore, soldiers will occasionally attack [[Tommy Vercetti]] when he passes by in the street outside, even though the player is technically not trespassing on the base itself. For this reason, extreme caution should be used when in the area. | ||
There are no hidden packages within the base, but there ''are'' accessible military vehicles, including the [[Rhino]] and the [[Hunter]]. Even so, stealing them with so many soldiers in the vicinity is no mean feat. The Hunter is particularly secure, as it is located at the rear of the base, behind many fences that need to be circumvented. Landing a [[Maverick]] next to the Hunter and then quickly jumping on board is one tactic to obtain the coveted attack helicopter. | |||
It is worth noting that Fort Baxter, like the police station in [[Vice Point]], can be entered freely if the player is wearing the cop outfit. | |||

Fort Baxter Airbase | Fort Baxter Airbase is also featured in GTA Vice City Stories. Set two years before GTA Vice City, the airbase's internal layout is significantly different. In Vice City, the base is only accessible by breaking through through the barriers at the main gate, while in Vice City Stories, the gates open automatically, are more substantial and cannot be broken. Corporal [[Victor Vance]] was stationed at Fort Baxter until his dishonorable discharge when [[Sergeant Peppah]] found marijuana hidden under Victor's bed. | ||
