Maverick

Name: Maverick

Summary: The Maverick is a two and four-bladed helicopter appearing in Grand Theft Auto IV, Episodes from Liberty City, Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online, and due to appear in Grand Theft Auto VI. The helicopter is manufactured by Western Company in GTA IV and Buckingham in GTA V. The Maverick returns from the 3D Universe where it also assumed a design based on that of the Bell 206 family of helicopters. The Maverick maintains the overall design of the Bell 206L LongRanger, albeit with a significantly shorter nose that seems to be inspired by the Eurocopter AS350 Écureuil. In Grand Theft Auto IV, it is equipped with a four-bladed main rotor, akin to the Bell 407, while in Grand Theft Auto V it adopts a two-bladed main rotor similar to that of the 206L, along with skids shared with the AS350-based Police Maverick. Early versions of the Maverick seen in Grand Theft Auto VI remain unchanged from its previous appearances, with the addition of a front nose camera that resembles a simplified version of the Cineflex V14. In later appearances, the Maverick is revealed to have been heavily revised to more closely resemble the 206, specifically the 206L LongRanger variant, and the 407. The redesigned Maverick makes a full appearance in the August 2026 leaks, where it can be seen parked on a helipad next to a medical clinic, as a Medevac helicopter owned by Fast Pass EMS. It is shown to come equipped with composite door windows, and a front wire cutter. The Maverick assumes an improved design and various changes, although it still remains similar to the previous renditions. Its fuselage appears to be much taller, and two small windows are added on the roof area, but the sections between the side doors no longer have extra windows. The skids are slightly shorter in height, and small details such as two vented sections and small exhausts are added to the engine compartment. Unlike previous renditions, the Maverick is depicted with sliding rear doors that are always open, and the rear passengers sit on the borders of the rear bay instead of on the rear seats. In addition to the aforementioned difference in rotor design (a two-blade rotor replaced by a four-blade variety), pre-release material also depicts earlier forms of the Maverick as having shut rear doors, as opposed to slid open doors in the final version. The interior of the aircraft features a small flight instrument panel/console in the center and two control sticks for the front occupants (again with o
