In [[The Lost and Damned]], the Annihilator | In [[The Lost and Damned]], the Annihilator's weapon is upgraded with explosive shells, and the top speed is increased, albeit not very noticeably. The minigun rounds can destroy vehicles and enemy players with only a few shots. When the explosive rounds, speed, and damage resistance are all put together, this equates to an extremely deadly vehicle, especially when facing an experienced pilot. | ||
The Annihilator is not made available in single-player mode | The Annihilator is not made available in single-player mode, so it can only be acquired through the use of [[Cheats in GTA IV|cheats]] or by sniping an Annihilator pilot flying low enough that the helicopter won't explode upon crashing. The Annihilator remains available in [[Multiplayer in The Lost and Damned|multiplayer's]] [[Deathmatch|deathmatch]] and [[Team Deathmatch|team deathmatch]], and is an integral part of [[Chopper Vs Chopper]]. | ||

In [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]], the helicopter remains the same as TLAD's revision, but this time it is available in single player, occasionally spawning on the [[MeTV]] building or the [[LCPD in GTA IV Era#Police stations|LCPD station]] in [[Lower Easton]].

NOOSE may now employ the helicopter's miniguns, but without explosive rounds, to assault the player during the missions "[[High Dive]]", "[[Not So Fast]]", and "[[For the Man Who Has Everything]]". | ||

When compared to [[Buzzard]], the Annihilator is not as useful, as the Buzzard is equipped with a rapid-fire machine gun along with missiles. However, the Annihilator is faster and can hold four people while the Buzzard only holds two. | ||

* The helicopter, like all other helicopters in the game, can lose its main rotor or tail broom, causing it to either hurtle towards the ground or spin wildly out of control. Also, though very rare, the tail rotor may shatter from continued damage, causing the chopper to spin out of control. | * The helicopter, like all other helicopters in the game, can lose its main rotor or tail broom, causing it to either hurtle towards the ground or spin wildly out of control.

* Although the Annihilator has four M134 7.62 NATO miniguns, each has an unrealistically low rate of fire (ROF). The ROF of all four guns firing is slightly slower than that of an SMG; in real life, each of these should fire at least 70 rounds per second, with the helicopter's total ROF being 280 to 400 rounds per second with all miniguns firing. However, when heard from a third-person view, it sounds as if the miniguns are firing much, much faster. | * Although the Annihilator has four M134 7.62 NATO miniguns, each has an unrealistically low rate of fire (ROF).
