GTA V Military Base Infiltration and Rhino Tank Acquisition Guide
Grand Theft Auto V, despite its age, remains incredibly popular. A key reason is the continuous updates and engaging content. This guide focuses on acquiring the coveted Rhino tank from the heavily guarded military base, Lago Zancudo.
Locating Lago Zancudo
Lago Zancudo, the military base, is situated south of North Chumash beach. The map below shows its precise location. The base is heavily fortified, presenting a challenge for infiltration.
Infiltration Strategies
Air Infiltration: Approaching by air (helicopter or plane) triggers a two-star wanted level upon airspace entry, escalating to four stars and guided missile attacks if you proceed. A parachute landing offers a chance to avoid immediate demise.
Ground Infiltration: A high-speed vehicle allows you to bypass the base's perimeter by jumping over surrounding cliffs or hills. Aim to land between the outer fences undetected. Alternatively, a motorcycle might allow you to slip past a momentarily inattentive guard at the main checkpoint.
Obtaining the Rhino Tank
Once inside, locate the Rhino tank patrolling the base. This requires a stealthy approach:
- Fire upon the Rhino tank to draw the driver's attention, then immediately seek cover.
- Repeat this process until the driver abandons the vehicle.
- Eliminate the driver and claim the Rhino tank.
Be warned: securing the tank instantly grants a four-star wanted level. Immediately seek refuge in a tunnel to evade helicopter attacks.
Additional Military Vehicles
Beyond the Rhino, Lago Zancudo holds other valuable military vehicles:
- Titan chopper
- Buzzard attack chopper
- P-996 LAZER fighter jet
This guide provides a comprehensive strategy for infiltrating Lago Zancudo and acquiring the powerful Rhino tank, along with other valuable military hardware within GTA V.
