Grand Theft Auto V, launched back in 2013, continues to captivate gamers worldwide. Its enduring appeal lies in the continuous updates and fresh content that keep players coming back for more. Whether you're looking to team up with friends or take control of a formidable tank, GTA V offers endless possibilities.
Speaking of tanks, did you know you can snag one for free within the game? To add some serious firepower to your arsenal, you'll need to venture into the military base. Many players are unaware of its location or how to breach its defenses. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about locating the military base and securing the Rhino tank, along with other valuable tips.
How To Infiltrate The Military Base In GTA V
To locate the military base, known as Lago Zancudo, consult your in-game map. You'll find it south of North Chumash beach; the image above pinpoints its exact location. As expected, the base is heavily fortified with fences and guards. However, there are several strategies to successfully infiltrate it.
Infiltrate The Base By Air
One method involves entering the base's airspace via helicopter or plane. Be warned: you'll immediately receive a two-star wanted level and a warning upon entry. Ignoring this will escalate your wanted level to four stars, and you'll be targeted by guided missiles. To increase your chances of survival, consider landing or parachuting into the base.
Infiltrate The Base By Land
Alternatively, you can attempt a ground assault. A fast car can be used to jump over a cliff or hill near the base. Aim to land between the outer fences without being detected. Once inside, you can navigate the base without alerting the guards. A bike can also be used for this maneuver, or you might even drive through the main checkpoint unnoticed if the guard is distracted.
How To Get The Rhino Tank From The Military Base In GTA V?
With the military base located and entry secured, your next objective is to acquire the Rhino tank. These tanks patrol the base, adding an extra layer of difficulty to your mission.
To capture the Rhino tank, follow these steps:
- Fire a few shots at the tank and then quickly hide.
- Repeat this process until the driver exits the vehicle.
- Eliminate the driver and take control of the tank.
Once you're in the tank, you'll instantly gain a four-star wanted level. To evade aerial attacks, seek shelter in a tunnel as soon as possible.
In addition to the Rhino tank, the military base is home to other impressive vehicles you can commandeer:
- Titan chopper
- Buzzard attack chopper
- P-996 LAZER fighter jet
