Police Maverick

The Police Maverick (also known as simply Polmav) is a police helicopter appearing in Grand Theft Auto IV, Episodes from Liberty City, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online, and due to appear in Grand Theft Auto VI. It is manufactured by Western Company in GTA IV and Buckingham in GTA V. The Police Maverick previously appeared in the 3D Universe where it also assumed the design of a standard Maverick with an appropriate police livery. From GTA V, the Police Maverick is no longer based on the standard Maverick and assumes a more modern design.

Color distribution is different to that of the regular Maverick, appearing in a white primary color for most of the fuselage and tail boom, and a secondary color for the engine compartment, part of the tail boom, and in the form of thin stripes passing on the sides. It also bears the LCPD markings, with "POLICE" text on the nose and tail boom. Replacing the original "invisible" machine gun under the fuselage, there are two Police Officers seated on both sides of the helicopter, programmed to shoot the player with Carbine Rifles (or Advanced MGs in The Ballad of Gay Tony), with NOOSE TRU agents replacing police officers in Mavericks at four stars (provided that the FIB does not respond).
