GTA Online is one of the most robust multiplayer games ever created. It has a robust vehicle arsenal that players can pick to go against their enemies in multiplayer, with the general rule being "the tankier it is, the better". In this article, GuruGamer is going to list out the top 5 vehicles with the highest defense in GTA Online.
As each vehicle has a different resistance to different weapons in the game, we are only going to account for the most commonly used weapon against vehicles: explosives.
Top 5 Vehicles With The Highest Defense In GTA Online
5 - APC
Maximum defense: 7 explosions
The HVY APC (Armored Personnel Carrier) is an armored assault vehicle featured in GTA Online, as part of the Gunrunning update. It has decent speed and power for off-road traveling and can be submerged fully without any problem.
Weapon-wise, the APC comes with a wide array of options. From the driver-control cannon to missile launchers, it is deadly in all situations. There are turrets for teammates in the back as well, with an option to drop proximity mines.
4 - Insurgent Pick-Up
Maximum defense: 9 explosions
The HVY Insurgent Pick-Up is a Light Armored Personnel Vehicle (LAPV) featured in GTA Online as part of the Heists Update. Being a pick-up, this vehicle can carry more people than a normal insurgent. It also comes with a roof-mounted Browning M2HB.50 caliber machine gun that can be controlled by anyone sitting in the rear cabin seats.
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.

3 - Ruiner 2000
Maximum defense: 9 explosions
The Imponte Ruiner 2000 is a modified muscle car featured in GTA Online as part of the Import/Export update. With it being one of the most expensive vehicles in the game, the Ruiner is top tier in pretty much every aspect, especially defense. Its speed and maneuverability are higher than the insurgent... and that's why it is higher on the list.
Weapon-wise, the Ruiner 2000 comes with tons of features. It has machine guns and homing missiles, along with a power hop mechanism and parachute hatch. The homing launchers equipped on the Ruiner 2000 are extremely deadly - they track targets super well.
2 - Half-track
Maximum defense: 9 explosions
The Bravado Half-track is a military truck featured in GTA Online as part of the Gunrunning update. It is based on a troop transport vehicle in WW2. Control-wise, the Half-Track has great acceleration and mobility, which allows it to climb any hills with ease. Its handling is really good because of the weight - you can go off-road at a moment's notice. However, the top speed of this vehicle is just average.
Weapon-wise, the Half-track has a turret on the back that can be used by other players. It has fairly good DPS with an x1.5 modifier. It also has the option to drop highly damaging proximity mines.
1 - Mobile Operation Center
Maximum defense: 24 explosions
The Pegasus Mobile Operations Center is a modular semi-trailer featured in the Gunrunning update for GTA Online. The reason for the vehicle's abnormal toughness is probably its non-combat role.
Overall, the MOC is a command center that you can call at any time, with a living quarter and weapon/vehicle workshops on board. While it has a few turrets, this vehicle is not really that good in combat due to its size. The only thing it's decent at is taking damage - enemies probably won't even have enough explosives to destroy it.
