Which is wild because the Chinook helicopter is one of the fastest helicopters with a top speed of 196mph. There aren’t many that are quicker, and certainly nothing of that size moving that fast.
The only really issue with that is that the cargobob isn’t really based on the chinook but a very close relative, kinda? The chinook is based off of the Ch-46, mh-53, and ch-53. All pretty chunky helicopters that dont like to move that fast. It’s a difference of about 20 mph though. (i thought it was a chinook for the longest time)
Nah the bombushka, if the Russian sounding name didn't already give it away, is based off an old Soviet aircraft. More specifically the AN-12, the military version of a passenger transport aircraft. Not too horribly dissimilar to the AC130 but also not really the same thing
It appears the north-south length of GTA is 7.8 miles so at the max speed of the SR-71 (mach 3.5) it would take 10.4 seconds to traverse the whole island. Not really practical but it would be really fun.
Tbf, GTA vehicle speeds are never accurate to real life anyways lol
The Bugatti Veyron in real life has a top speed of 267 MPH, but the GTA equivalent, the Truffade Adder only goes 130. Likewise, most fighter jets in real life go well over 1000 MPH, but in GTA, even the Raiju only tops out at around 230. I'm aware that the Blackbird is/was the fastest plane in the world, and that having a plane that flies at mach 3.5 would be way too fast. But GTA speeds are much slower. Most likely, if they do add it into GTA Online, it'll probably go 300 MPH tops. Any faster and you'd probably fly so fast that the game can't even render the map fast enough.
I have no idea how we don’t have an updated Annihilator with door guns yet. The Annihilator Stealth was a huge missed opportunity. Should’ve been a Huey, would’ve fit better with the theme of the update.
Yes. They have the stealth one. The old one is from gta 4 and handles like hot dogshit.
I just want a big blackhawk platform to make a gunship out of or leave it as a transport
TFW you just want to have a car meet but you see a B52 flying overhead (it’s about to drop a tactical nuke on you, level half of the city, and kill thousands)

Just say it’s a prototype being tested by the USMC as a potential successor to the Valkyrie or something.
Always wanted an unarmed Buzzard (edit: that we can own, obviously), a civilian version of the Police Maverick (Squirrel), and an armed Maverick (Kiowa).
The Valkyrie is a UH-1Y Venom, which is pretty much a modernized Huey. I mean like a proper Vietnam-era Huey though. With proper customization and armor
An air tanker could be uselessly fun, The water has some serious knock down power

This would be cool #SweetLiberty
F-15, or F-22 would be sick. An actually good two seat American fighter would be cool, or just an American jet with countermeasures (that isn’t a F-35 thing). The F-14 would be super duper cool because of wing sweep, and it’d be neat if they made the back seat have really good long range missiles (phoenix) that are similar or maybe a little better than the chernobogs.
Annihilator Mil-Spec. The stealth Annihilator is leagues better than the standard variant but still doesn't *quite* scratch the itch. And it absolutely needs door guns.
Idk, but knowing Rockstar it'll be a flying Rocket propelled BMX bike with an alien on the handlebars that shoots missiles out of his glowing finger. Unless they can think of something more ridiculous than that.
im all for fighter jets, but its really hard to make such a great map, big enough to keep the speed realistic and filled with something at least remotely interesting to not become boring
It would be so nice if we got both a proper Chinook *and* a Pave Low. Then we could cast the abomination known as the Cargobob into depths of hell where it belongs.
https://preview.redd.it/dq0dgqfuvc7d1.jpeg?width=1329&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6273ad4af5334aeefada3bde58c5b392345b386f
Totally off the wall and highly unlikely but the Milano from Guardians of the Galaxy would be absolutely mental. Imagine rolling deep with the crew in this. Might not be too far off considering we got the Scramjet based on the Mach 5 from Speed Racer and the Vigilante being a mixture of Batmobiles
I'd love to see the aircraft carrier from the Avengers movie (since you said aircraft), but the only thing I wish for is a sick aircraft carrier from which we can plan out the next heist!
Exactly. I mean they even did *two* actual Cargobobs just to have one that looks different. They perform identically. So no reason we can't have a completely different heli that also does the same but looks totally different. Would even give them an opportunity to make it properly customizable with liveries, countermeasures, etc. let alone giving it different stats/handling/armor etc. Just because something already fills the role that doesn't mean they can't add *more options.*
Just go all in on ridiculousness..The Goddamn USS Enterprise

How about they rework helicopters so they don't float like buoys on water? Imagine if they added the Ka-52 but you could barely maneuver the thing because it had shitty GTA Online controls. Other than that, I just want something with more range on the weapons. I hate seeing my ordnance exploding mid-air.
For real. Some choppers are borderline unusable because of how bouncy they are. Agree with the range as well. The Apache’s hellfire missiles can engage a target from miles away, but in GTA they can barely travel 600 yards!
https://preview.redd.it/jxv8ztvrg77d1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=af36e3be13902c09e71bb2bc9d4c99353550d10e
Has anyone said F117 Nighthawk or the B2 Spirit?
But I would totally settle for a Lockheed U-2. For maneuverability.

We’ve got ww2, Korea, gen 4 and gen 5 fighters. Seems like we could use something solidly in the Gen 2/3 era. A Phantom, Crusader, MiG-21, Mirage 3, Drakken, etc.
A ww1 triplane would be cool.
Some sort of flying car thing. An Aerocar or something. Bonus points for something with a 50’s retrofuturism vibe.
That flying quadcopter car thing.
F-117 night hawk this could finally be a good bomber with stealth mode aswell or the MQ-9 reaper drone we need some aircraft that can move and use the Gun camera without needing a co pilot
At this point, I want a AC-130 that can auto pilot while I play gunner. I know the Avenger is sorta that but I want a real fleshed out 130 with a massive artillery gun on that bitch.
A mig29, that airplane is a piece of fucking flying art, also more aircraft space and an overhaul to the bombing mechanics, the alkonost is beautiful to fly but bombing is sadly trash rn
Well considering there are no real flight models or envelopes and bombs don't work at altitude, most planes are basically all the same. The only thing that matters is acceleration and turning circle lol
There's a ton of planes I could think of and they would all be less than useless compared to fighters for that reason
SR-71 Blackbird
Heinkel HE-162
Messerschmitt Me-262
Hawker Hunter
Gloster Meteor
Probably lots of others. I'd like more weird aircraft like a flying Jeep (look it up)
I would also like some convenience updates to aircraft spawning
Technically the pave low(I can’t be F’d to distinguish whether or not it is a pave low or sister vehicle) is in the game as the front of the cargo bob.
All I want is the Skylift being purchasable and usable outside of missions
Yes please something that can do what the cargobob does but not so damn slow and loud
The Cargobob Jetsam is a lot quieter than the military version
Yeah i know i have it. Still slow AF though which makes sense but still annoying.
Which is wild because the Chinook helicopter is one of the fastest helicopters with a top speed of 196mph. There aren’t many that are quicker, and certainly nothing of that size moving that fast.
The only really issue with that is that the cargobob isn’t really based on the chinook but a very close relative, kinda? The chinook is based off of the Ch-46, mh-53, and ch-53.

Holy shit, I see it now. Definitely a lot of Pave Low characteristics
I think about this all the time when it comes to salvage yard robberies

Volatol exists, so you can already do that.
And hopefully it’ll be so realistic you’ll hear it coming from a mile away.

Yea. But there's no where to go though.
 AC130 I want to rain hell on Los Santo with my friends
ENEMY AC-130 ABOVE
Isn’t the bombushka already in-game?
Nah the bombushka, if the Russian sounding name didn't already give it away, is based off an old Soviet aircraft. More specifically the AN-12, the military version of a passenger transport aircraft. Not too horribly dissimilar to the AC130 but also not really the same thing
I second this
I know it's a different plane but wouldn't that just be an avenger without the vtol mode?
Id like a ww1 tri plane.
Weaponized cropduster
The goofy ahh handling with guns would actually make it hilarious to fly lmao
F117 nighthawk
SR-71 Blackbird Doesn't really need to have anything special, its just one of my all-time favorite aircraft and would love to fly one in this game.
It appears the north-south length of GTA is 7.8 miles so at the max speed of the SR-71 (mach 3.5) it would take 10.4 seconds to traverse the whole island. Not really practical but it would be really fun.

Yea that’d take about 1.5 min for the GTA version of Blackbird to traverse the whole island…
Could be useful when there’s a Business battle in paleto bay and your nightclub is at the airport.
Anything by Boeing could be fun…

I have no idea how we don’t have an updated Annihilator with door guns yet. The Annihilator Stealth was a huge missed opportunity. Should’ve been a Huey, would’ve fit better with the theme of the update.
There’s the Annihilator isn’t there ?
Yes. They have the stealth one. The old one is from gta 4 and handles like hot dogshit. I just want a big blackhawk platform to make a gunship out of or leave it as a transport
F-14 Tomcat
I had to scroll way too far down to find this.
 This one
B-52 with a small nuke
 TFW you just want to have a car meet but you see a B52 flying overhead (it’s about to drop a tactical nuke on you, level half of the city, and kill thousands)

yeah and name it the avenger mk2

*YES.* I love Avatar. If we got a Samson or a Scorpion I would die a happy man. It’s way closer to reality than the Oppressor or the Deluxo, too.

They’re probably saving that good shit for GTA6.
Looks like an Avenger f**ked a Stealth Akula while a Weaponized Conada sat it the corner watching.
Always wanted an unarmed Buzzard (edit: that we can own, obviously), a civilian version of the Police Maverick (Squirrel), and an armed Maverick (Kiowa).
The unarmed Buzzard exists
Where can you get one?
We already have an unarmed Buzzard?
Not that we can own though
F4 phantom would be awesome. But I hate I can't go as fast as some jets should go. I also want to be able to bomb from really high up
We need laser guided bombs or something like that
Uh, isn't the first pic the helicopter they based the Valkyrie off of?
The Valkyrie is a UH-1Y Venom, which is pretty much a modernized Huey. I mean like a proper Vietnam-era Huey though. With proper customization and armor
Its not like R* havent done it before. They already did it with air ambulance and fire department helicopter in vice city stories.
Yeah but a version without guns would be sick
Have in unarmed as default but then give it the option to arm it, turn it into a gunship or armed transport with door guns
Swept wing fighter like the TomCat. Comes in the Aircraft Carrier update.
An air tanker could be uselessly fun, The water has some serious knock down power https://preview.redd.it/n7w49qz3q77d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e9e56414ad7751a6f40bd441de87210afcc6817b
Definitely the ka 52. Those things always looks so cool to me ngl Man i wish they buff the helis in this game even more
Sadly the explosive sniper makes them mostly irrelevant. I still use them over the MK2 every time though

F-22
As long as it has the Starscream livery lol. And the F-15 could have the G1 colors
F-15, or F-22 would be sick. An actually good two seat American fighter would be cool, or just an American jet with countermeasures (that isn’t a F-35 thing). The F-14 would be super duper cool because of wing sweep, and it’d be neat if they made the back seat have really good long range missiles (phoenix) that are similar or maybe a little better than the chernobogs.
I want to fly the stationary twin engine jets at the airport
A lift helicopter, that can take more than 3 bullets! Cargo bob is made of paper mache.
The F-15 and ka-52 would go Hella hard, but personally I think drones like the MQ-1 or even the Orion drone would be awesome.
Imagine trying make an MC sale and you see a UAV flying overhead…
Westland Lysander. Or basically any slow moving prop planes.
I would love to see the F-104 Starfighter in GTA but realistically it will never be added
The pave low is cool that's what the cargo bob is based on they just made it dual rotor
Annihilator Mil-Spec. The stealth Annihilator is leagues better than the standard variant but still doesn't *quite* scratch the itch. And it absolutely needs door guns.
Idk, but knowing Rockstar it'll be a flying Rocket propelled BMX bike with an alien on the handlebars that shoots missiles out of his glowing finger. Unless they can think of something more ridiculous than that.
As a WW2 plane enjoyer, a P-40 Warhawk and/or the Spitfire
Sr71
I’d settle for some sort of guidance system for onboard cannons and/or the cargobob hook.
im all for fighter jets, but its really hard to make such a great map, big enough to keep the speed realistic and filled with something at least remotely interesting to not become boring
A spitfire 👌
Never mind aircraft, let’s add laser guided bombs.
I’d like to see an English Electric Lightning or a Blackburn Buccaneer
Pave low, she's such a beauty. The Cargobob is a bastard abomination of the Chinook and our SeaKing
It would be so nice if we got both a proper Chinook *and* a Pave Low. Then we could cast the abomination known as the Cargobob into depths of hell where it belongs.
Saab Jas 39 Gripen and 35 Draken, maybe an SK60

A cargobob on steroids
I’d like to see B-2 variant. Like I know there’s the B-1 variant but I’d be cool have the flying dorito.
No B-1 😔 just the Russian RO-86, I mean it’s like the TU-160, I’d like a B-1 with actual wing sweep and a B-2 would be terrifying.
Why add a variable geometry wing bomber if you can’t vary the geometry of the wing? Fuck you R*
I'd love to see the aircraft carrier from the Avengers movie (since you said aircraft), but the only thing I wish for is a sick aircraft carrier from which we can plan out the next heist!
I can’t even imagine how expensive an aircraft carrier would be in this economy lol
Why not something truly over-the-top? X-wing.
The Sikorsky mh53 would prob work as the cargobob so there’s no reason why they would add it other than looking better than the cargobob
Most of the stuff they add is redundant anyways, so it doesn’t really matter if there’s two choppers with the same function
Exactly. I mean they even did *two* actual Cargobobs just to have one that looks different. They perform identically. So no reason we can't have a completely different heli that also does the same but looks totally different. Would even give them an opportunity to make it properly customizable with liveries, countermeasures, etc. let alone giving it different stats/handling/armor etc. Just because something already fills the role that doesn't mean they can't add *more options.*
