The Sea Sparrow is one of only two helicopters in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (although it reads as SeaSparrow when getting in) that can land on water, and is the only helicopter in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories capable of doing so. It is an improved version of the Sparrow, featuring pontoons instead of skis, and carries a .50 caliber machine gun mounted on the front of its fuselage. In Vice City, it is unlocked by collecting 80 hidden packages, and is intended as a bonus to the player. In San Andreas, the Sea Sparrow does not require unlocking, and can be found at certain places. In Vice City Stories, the Sea Sparrow is used during the mission "The Colonel's Coke" but the player can't get it outside of this mission or the side-mission "Land Sea and Air Ace". Because of its fully exposed engine, the Sea Sparrow is highly susceptible to gunfire. It is, however, particularly useful for reaching Collectibles, quick maneuvering, and shooting down other helicopters.
