The '''Jetpack''' is a 60 million dollar vehicle in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. It gives the player the ability to fly while on foot, allowing for both high-flying exploration and for super-fast "hit and run" assaults on enemies—although slower than most vehicles at full speed, it offers the player far greater agility than any normal vehicle, at the expense of leaving the player fully exposed to gunfire.

The Jetpack is unique, being a vehicle which behaves like a [[Pickups|pickup]] -- it hangs in the air when not in use, and is activated instantly when [[Carl Johnson]] walks into it. It allows for directional control with two omnidirectional nozzle-like jets providing thrust; strangely, the nozzles do not seem to burn or otherwise harm CJ, despite being inches from his shoulders. When using the Jetpack, the player can only fire one handed weapons, although, somewhat incongruously, these can be dual-wielded.

The Jetpack is a prototype created in the [[Military|US military]]'s underground lab in [[Area 69]]; Carl Johnson steals it for [[The Truth]] in the mission [[Black Project]]. Due to the secrecy of the project, The Truth is the only civilian other than CJ to know of its existence. After this mission, the Jetpack will respawn at [[Verdant Meadows]]. CJ later uses it to attack a military train in the mission [[Green Goo]] . The Jetpack is permanently available in Verdant Meadows after the Black Project mission and it can also be accessed at any time through cheats.
