6 Useful Vehicles To Counter Griefers In GTA Online

Griefers are the most annoying part of GTA Online. Some players just want to harass others by blowing up their vehicles and cargo. To deal with them, getting the right vehicle is a must.

In this article, Gurugamer is going to showcase the 6 useful vehicles to counter griefers in GTA Online.

1. Nightshark

The HVY Nightshark is an armored four-door SUV featured in GTA Online as part of the Gunrunning update. It is an armored SUV with a large and bulky design that can withstand up to four rockets from a Rocket Launcher (explodes after the fifth one). Its anti-missile capability is even higher - the Nightshark can tank up to 27 homing missiles when fully upgraded with a player inside.

Performance-wise, the Nightshark has great acceleration and good top speed, as well as great handling. The vehicle is also equipped with four retractable machine guns. Its only downside is that the windows are not bulletproof, meaning that players are vulnerable to gunfire.

Towing an Anti-Aircraft Trailer in collaboration with another player gives the vehicle increased potential against airborne targets.

2. Hydra

The Hydra is a military VTOL attack jet featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Heists Update. It is the first military jet available in the Grand Theft Auto series. It is the most sophisticated aircraft in the game, with the capability to perform vertical take-off and land like a helicopter.

The adaptable controls and extraordinary maneuverability makes the Hydra easier to use than its counterpart, the LAZER.

The Hydra is generally the top choice if you are going to buy an aircraft. It is armed with highly damaging explosive cannons, rockets, and very accurate heat-seeking missiles. In exchange for the accuracy, its missiles deal roughly a third of the standard missiles' damage.

3. Insurgent Pick-Up

The HVY Insurgent Pick-Up is a Light Armored Personnel Vehicle (LAPV) added to GTA Online in the Heists Update. The strength of the Insurgent Pick-up is its tankiness - the car provides excellent protection when maxed, with the ability to tank up to 27 homing missiles and 14 RPGs (if occupied by a driver). Weapon-wise, it comes with a roof-mounted machine gun that can be controlled by anyone sitting in the rear cabin seats.

The Insurgent Pick-up Custom has the same role as the Nightshark

In terms of overall performance, the Insurgent Pick-up is lackluster in acceleration due to its weight... however, its top speed is acceptable. The weight also helps in keeping it grounded when cornering. Furthermore, the Insurgent is deadly for ramming - its full-speed charge can cripple or even disable many other road vehicles.

4. Chernobog

The HVY Chernobog is a weaponized Military vehicle that carries an amazing missile system that can blast any kind of flying vehicle out of the sky. Most griefers use flying vehicles like the OppressorMK2.

Chernobog Gtao Front — Players can even tow an Anti-aircraft trailer with this truck for even more firepower.

The rocket system can fire up to five rockets, either independently or in a quick burst. The lock-on range of missiles reaches an excessively high 1000 meters according to the game files (the same as the effective range of Marksman Rifle) and the guidance capability of missiles will even stress experienced pilots in P-996 LAZER.

The missiles are more accurate than most and can even turn around to pursue aircraft that they missed initially.

5. P-996 LAZER

The P-996 LAZER is probably the best fighter jet you can find in GTA Online. Being the most expensive plane on the roster ($6,500,000), it has the best speed, third highest acceleration and fairly sensitive handling.

P996 Lazer Gta V — The Lazer requires experience from the user as its handling is fairly sensitive.

Weapon-wise, the Lazer is more of a gun plane than a missile plane. It comes with dual explosive cannons that can finish off most enemies with a single well-aimed burst. Heavily armored targets like Avenger, Mobile Operations Center, or the Insurgent Pick-Up Custom can also be dealt with after sustained fire. However, in exchange for this high damage, the range of its gun is rather limited.

6. LF-22 Starling

The LF-22 Starling is a rocket plane featured in GTA Online as part of the Smuggler's Run update. The Starling's performance is similar to that of a modern-day fighter jet, and its small, compact design is very easy to handle.

Lf22 Starling Gtao Front — LF-22 Starling's booster provides a huge amount of acceleration, surpassing even the Hydra, Besra and P-996 LAZER.

Speed-wise, the plane is considerably sluggish without its Booster ability, but with correct usage, it can easily be one of the best performing planes in the game. The Starling comes with machine guns, homing missiles and even an option for installing bombs.
