Operation Northwood is a Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars mission given to Huang Lee by Wade Heston.

Strategy

After the cutscene, get a fast car; conveniently, someone will always park a Banshee outside the apartment. Drive the car to the Bomb Garage in North Holland and drive in to execute a touchscreen mini-game in which you arm the car with a bomb. Drive to the new GPS destination to wait for the dealer.

The dealer hops into a car of his own and starts driving recklessly around Algonquin. Chase after him but don't worry about trying to bash him. Don't get to close, as he will shoot you. If he gets off the top of your screen, take note of the tire marks he seems to leave behind everywhere he goes so that you can easily track his turns.

The dealer will eventually come to a stop at his warehouse in Northwood. Drive your bomb-equipped car to the waypoint marked between a couple of gas tanks and then exit the car. Put some distance between you and the explosives before setting off the bomb, completing the mission.

Rewards

You earn $200 from this mission and unlock the mission Torpedo Run.

Trivia

Script

(At Heston's apartment)

Huang: So, you've got a real lead, or do you just want me to do your dirty work?

Heston: In time, Huang. First, if I'm gonna stay ahead of IAD, I'm gonna need to get off the coke, the heroin and all the other shit - only, my dealer won't let one of his best customers go so easy. He's got 'evidence' against me going way back and he's threatening he'll hand it all to IAD today unless I keep buying. They're already breathing hard down my neck - this would bury me.

Huang: Why don't your buddies help you out?

Heston: All they care about is their cut. Look, you owe me, Huang! IAD would be off my back already if it hadn't been for you.

Huang: I'm not sure how you figure that out, my friend. I know - it's tough being a cop. You have to give out parking tickets and you get to shoot people. Boo hoo. I'll find your dealer and make sure his evidence meets a fitting end. But you clean up your act. You're revolting.

"Heston's dealer was going to sell him out to IAD.

I chased him down and removed him, and the evidence he had against Heston."
