Designed as a large four-wheeled armored riot control police vehicle for [[State of San Andreas|San Andreas]], the SWAT is more accurately described as an [[wp:Armoured personnel carrier|armored personnel carrier (APC)]], contrary to its "Tank" name. The SWAT is based on the [[Wikipedia:Cadillac Gage Commando|Cadillac Gage V-100 Commando]], which the real-life Los Angeles Police Department sometimes used as an urban assault vehicle during the 1980s and 1990s. | Designed as a large four-wheeled armored riot control police vehicle for [[State of San Andreas|San Andreas]], the SWAT is more accurately described as an [[wp:Armoured personnel carrier|armored personnel carrier (APC)]], contrary to its "Tank" name.

The SWAT features a fully rotatable water cannon that can easily knock down enemies, meaning it can put out fires and is fun to drive as its shovel-shaped front easily pushes cars harshly with minuscule damage done to the APC. It also has double the health of any other general vehicle in the game due to its heavy armor. The SWAT can accommodate two people, who can enter through the doors on either side; there is also hatch on top of the APC but it is not accessible. The vehicle also features a wailing siren but lacks light bars to complement it. | The SWAT features a fully rotatable water cannon that can easily knock down enemies, meaning it can put out fires and is fun to drive, as its shovel-shaped front easily pushes cars harshly with minuscule damage done to the APC.

The SWAT may be used to initiate the [[Vigilante]] [[Vehicle Missions|vehicle mission]]; however, since [[Carl Johnson]] cannot perform a drive-by in the SWAT, it is not recommended to try to do so. This vehicle is not bullet-proof/bomb-proof/fire-proof/explosion-proof, meaning if being shot at by the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]], [[SWAT]], [[Military|Army]], or [[Police]] with heavy weapons, this vehicle may explode quickly, making it a terrible getaway car. However, in the last mission, there is a bullet and fireproof version. | The SWAT may be used to initiate the [[Vigilante]] [[Vehicle Missions|vehicle mission]]; however, since [[Carl Johnson]] cannot perform a drive-by in the SWAT, it is not recommended to try to do so.
