Where To Find The Military Base & Rhino In GTA 5

GTA V Military Base Infiltration and Rhino Tank Acquisition Guide

Grand Theft Auto V, despite its age, remains incredibly popular. While GTA VI is anticipated, GTA V's continuous updates and engaging content keep players hooked. This guide focuses on acquiring the coveted Rhino tank from the heavily guarded military base, Lago Zancudo.

Locating Lago Zancudo Military Base

Lago Zancudo is situated south of North Chumash beach. The map image above pinpoints its precise location. The base is heavily fortified with fences and security, requiring strategic infiltration.

Infiltrating Lago Zancudo: Two Approaches

Air Infiltration: Approaching by air (helicopter or plane) immediately triggers a two-star wanted level and a warning. Ignoring this escalates to a four-star wanted level and guided missile attacks. A parachute landing might mitigate some risk.

Ground Infiltration: A fast vehicle allows you to bypass the base's defenses. Aim to land between the outer fences undetected. Alternatively, a speedy bike might work, or you might even luck out and drive past the main checkpoint if the guard isn't paying attention.

Acquiring the Rhino Tank

Once inside the base, locate the Rhino tank. This is challenging as it's mobile. The strategy is:

1. Fire upon the Rhino tank, then seek cover.
2. Repeat until the driver abandons the vehicle.
3. Eliminate the driver and claim the Rhino tank.

Be warned: taking the tank instantly grants a four-star wanted level. Immediately seek refuge in a tunnel to avoid aerial attacks.

Additional Military Base Vehicles

Beyond the Rhino tank, Lago Zancudo holds other valuable vehicles:

• Titan chopper
• Buzzard attack chopper
• P-996 LAZER fighter jet
