The '''National Office Of Security Enforcement (NOOSE)''' is an high-end law enforcement organization in [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|Liberty City]] in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]. It fulfils the roles of both the [[Military]] and [[SWAT]] units seen in [[GTA III Era|previous GTA games]].
The '''National Office Of Security Enforcement (NOOSE)''' is an high-end law enforcement organization in the [[HD Universe]]. In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], it fulfills the roles of both the [[Military]] and [[SWAT]] units seen in [[GTA III Era|previous GTA games]]. In [[Grand Theft Auto V]], although the Military has a presence in the game, they do not actively engage the player during a [[Wanted Level in GTA V|wanted level]] unless the player is within the perimeter of [[Fort Zancudo]], leaving NOOSE as the highest level threat in normal situations.

== Description ==
NOOSE is based on the [[wp:United States Department of Homeland Security|U.S. Department of Homeland Security]] and is separated into two divisions: the '''Liberty City Patriotism and Immigration Authority''', based on the [[wp:U.S. Customs and Border Protection|U.S. Customs and Border Protection]], and the '''Liberty City Tactical Response Unit''', based on the [[wp:BORTAC|United States Border Patrol Tactical Unit]].
NOOSE is based on the [[wp:United States Department of Homeland Security|U.S. Department of Homeland Security]] and has two known divisions: the '''Patriotism and Immigration Authority''', based on the [[wp:U.S. Customs and Border Protection|U.S. Customs and Border Protection]], and the '''Tactical Response Unit''', based on the [[wp:BORTAC|U.S. Border Patrol Tactical Unit]].


===GTA IV and EFLC===
NOOSE is called upon to assist the [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|police]] when the player has a [[Wanted Level in GTA IV|wanted level]] of at least 4 stars, before the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation#Grand Theft Auto IV|FIB]]. Patriotism and Immigration Authority officers are largely similar to the [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]]'s in behavior, weapons, appearance and mannerisms. Tactical Response officers, however, are designed to appear as fully equipped tactical squad units, with heavy armor and weaponry.

In multiplayer, NOOSE is the main rival force during [[Hangman's NOOSE]], in which players must escort [[Kenny Petrovic]] from [[Francis International Airport, Dukes|Francis International Airport]] to [[Charge Island]].

===GTA V===
NOOSE officers start to appear at wanted levels of 3 stars as air support in [[Police Maverick]]s. Police helicopters have two sharpshooters on board armed with Carbine Rifles, and shoot at the player and their getaway vehicle. At 4 stars, NOOSE officers start to assist the [[LSPD in GTA V|LSPD]], Los Santos County, and Blaine County Sheriff's Departments on the ground. NOOSE comes 3 to a vehicle either in [[FIB SUV]]s if the player is within the [[Los Santos in GTA V|Los Santos]] city limits or [[Sheriff SUV]]s if the player is in the remote areas of [[San Andreas in GTA V|San Andreas]]. Additionally, 4 NOOSE officers can rappel from Police Mavericks to engage the player on the ground at 4 stars and above.

* A [[:wp:noose|noose]] is a type of self-tightening knot, most commonly known for the [[:wp:Hangman's knot|Hangman's knot]] used in public [[:wp:hangings|hangings]]. A reference to the Hangman's knot is the one is depicted on the eagle's shield within the NOOSE seal.

* NOOSE's seal is a combination of the seals of the [[wp:File:US_Department_of_Homeland_Security_Seal.svg|U.S. Department of Homeland Security]] and the [[wp:File:National Security Agency.svg|National Security Agency]]. The primary design (color scheme, border, and eagle) is based on the DHS seal, while the shield and key the eagle is holding is similar to the NSA seal.

* The player may notice that the insignia of NOOSE on the NOOSE Cruiser and NOOSE Patriot is labeled "L.C N.o.o.s.e". This is likely a nod toward GTA III's [[FBI Car]] which had its name similarly displayed as "Fbi Car".
* Although the APC in TBOGT bears "NOOSE Tactical Response Unit" labeling, it is never actually used by the NOOSE, apart from the mission [[Frosting on the Cake]].

* If the player throws a grenade under or near a NOOSE Enforcer it will not even try to move away from that area, which the normal Police cars would do.

* A NOOSE character model in a balaclava appears in a screenshot for [[GTA V]]. However this appears to be a placeholder.
