== Description ==
The Sparrow is based on the [[wp:Bell 47|Bell Model 47]] [[wp:H-13 Sioux|"Sioux"]], the military version of which, the H-13, was made famous by its role in M.A.S.H..
Based on the [[:wp:Bell 47|Bell Model 47]] [[:wp:H-13 Sioux|"Sioux"]], the Sparrow handles quite well in GTA Vice City compared to the [[Maverick]] despite its outdated appearance, but has taken a slight downturn in GTA San Andreas. It can fit 2 people inside and is great for transporting a body guard in GTA Vice City or a homie in GTA San Andreas. The Helicopter's weak point is its uncovered engine. A few shots is enough to bring it out of the air. Also of interesting is the tail rotor of the GTA San Andreas Sparrow, which is dislocated, placed a considerable distance further back from the tail fin.

It can fit 2 people inside and is great for transporting a body guard in GTA Vice City or a homie in GTA San Andreas. The Helicopter's weak point is its uncovered engine. A few shots is enough to bring this whirley bird out of the air.

A more practical variant, known as the [[Sea Sparrow]], possesses a machine gun and the ability to land on water.
