In this mission you'll have to steal a Securicar using a Leviathan Skycrane, which you have to steal at K.A.C.C. Military Fuels, an army fuel depot in north-east Las Venturas.

Drive to the fuel depot, the gate will only be opened for a military vehicle, what a coincidence a Patriot just drives outside when you arrive at the premises. Quickly get inside the premises and shoot all soldiers at the parking lot to another realm. Be aware that they all have a M4! Go inside the shed to the left and kill some soldiers before you continue further inside the building, don't forget the soldiers on top of the footbridges. Use some objects, like boxes and crates, to stay covered. Inside the shed you can find a health and armor, which might be very useful. After you cleared the shed leave it through the back door. Outside you'll meet some more soldiers, kill them all and go to the stairs which leads to a helicopter platform. There will be two more soldiers at the platform and one near the minigun. Now two Hunters will arrive, use the minigun to blast them sky high.

Go to the helicopter platform and get in the Leviathan Skycrane. Now you'll have use the magnet beneath the Leviathan Skycrane to pick-up the Securicar, which you'll need for the heist. To control the magnet you'll have to use the right analog stick on a PS2, on a PC use the [8] and [2] of the Numpad. Fly with the Securicar to Verdant Meadows Aircraft Graveyard and place it in the red marker, land the helicopter in the designated spot. Mission passed!

Hints

  • Make sure you start this mission with body armor, some strong weapons (like the M4) and enough ammo, because they will fire at you with a M4 themselves.
  • In stead of the minigun you can use a heat-seeking rocket launcher to blow up the Hunters.
  • You can also land on the helicopter platform using a parachute or a jetpack, this way you'll skip the first part of the mission and you'll be at the helicopter right away.
