At the Downtown station, a [[Police Maverick]] is stationed on the roof. These helicopters are deployed at a 3-star wanted level and will shoot the player from the air using its machine gun under the fuselage. The helicopter is mainly green in GTA Vice City, but in GTA Vice City Stories, it is mainly tan.

Additionally, the Downtown station is home to Vice City's [[SWAT|S.W.A.T.]] team, which appears at the 4-star wanted level. These highly trained officers travel in fours in the fast and durable [[Enforcer]], wielding [[SMG]]s. At a 4-star wanted level, they will replace the police cruisers in roadblocks, while still appearing alongside the cruisers on the streets. When the player stays in one place at a 4-star wanted level, S.W.A.T. officers will rappel down from the police helicopters. They are lethal to a player on-foot, even with [[Armor]], and can turn a perfectly good automobile into a flaming and exploding death-trap in seconds with their heavy gunfire. The Enforcer in GTA Vice City sports a green-and-white body color while the GTA Vice City Stories rendition is black and white.

It is also hinted, according to the official Vice City website, that there is another branch of the VCPD, the Vice City Bureau of Investigation (VCBI), who are investigating Vice City's criminal underworld and the events that unfold during GTA Vice City. As seen through the window of their office, the VCBI is located somewhere along [[Ocean Drive]] in Vice City. It is unknown as to whether the VCBI is a separate entity of it's own or if it is a branch of the VCPD.
