The Annihilator's design and real-life counterpart are comparable to those of the [[Raindance]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. It fills the attack helicopter role previously taken by the GTA III-era [[Hunter]]. | ||

Operated by the [[NOOSE|LC Patriotism and Immigration Authority]], or NOOSE, the Annihilator is one of the two armed law enforcement vehicles (The other being the [[APC]]) in GTA IV. It is occasionally seen patrolling the skies above Liberty City in single player mode, often over the [[East Borough Bridge]] and [[Hickey Bridge]]. Its livery is modeled after the US Custom and Border Protection's Office of CBP Air and Marine colors. | Operated by the [[NOOSE|LC Patriotism and Immigration Authority]], or NOOSE, the Annihilator is one of the two armed law enforcement vehicles (The other being the [[APC]]) in GTA IV.

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 in full effect to assault the player during the missions "[[High Dive]]", "[[Not So Fast]]", and "[[For the Man Who Has Everything]]". | 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]].

When compared to [[Buzzard]], the Annihilator is not as useful, as the Buzzard is equipped with machine guns with unlimited ammo that do NOT need to be reloaded and fire normal rounds, along with unlimited missiles. However, the Annihilator is faster and can hold 4 people, while the Buzzard only holds 2. | ||

* 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).
