The '''[[Wikipedia:Flamethrower|Flamethrower]]''' is a mechanical device designed to project a long controllable stream of fire. This weapon has appeared in every [[Grand Theft Auto]] game since the first [[Grand Theft Auto 1|Grand Theft Auto]], except in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], [[The Lost and Damned]] and [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]]. It is classified as a Heavy Weapon in the later editions. The [[Grand Theft Auto III]] rendition of the flamethrower is based somewhat on the US Army M2 Flamethrower, albeit lacking a backpack fuel tank, and adopting a rifle-like design. The renditions after GTA III are not based on any known flamethrower design, but they may be homebuilt.

In GTA Liberty City Stories, it is used in the mission [[Friggin' the Riggin']], in where [[Toni Cipriani]] uses a flamethrower collected from [[Phil Cassidy|Phil Cassidy's]] [[Phil Cassidy's Fully Cocked Gun Shop|Fully Cocked Gun Shop]] to destroy fake ballot papers, [[Forelli Family]] members and vans and two printing machines. In GTA Vice City Stories, it is used in the mission [[Light My Pyre]] by [[Diego and Armando Mendez|Armando Mendez]], who uses a flamethrower to confront and kill [[Victor Vance]], who ends up killing Armando in the end.
