Comparing Military Airbase Options
While cheat codes are quick, jets spawned this way only last around 5 minutes before disappearing. For permanent access, you‘ll need to infiltrate and steal jets from various military airbases around San Andreas.
We‘ll compare the top options:
Fort Zancudo
+ Huge fleet of fighter jets, transport aircraft parked in the open
+ Easy to blast through fences and grab nearby P-996 Lazers
+ Can avoid wanted levels by secretly swiping uniforms
- Heavily fortified ground defenses make frontal assaults riskyLos Santos International Airport
+ Far less military presence guarding the area
+ Parked beside civilian planes, letting you blend in
+ Stealing jets from airfield is easier with disguise
- Spawns less top-speed aircraft like P-996s
- Wanted levels trigger quickly once detected As shown above, I recommend Fort Zancudo as the best airbase for snagging fighter jets in GTA 5 for its mix of access and quality options.
Now let‘s get deeper into mastering flight and combat with these beasts!
Advanced Jet Control & Combat Tactics
Controlling ultra high-speed jets takes practice. Here are pro tips for domination:
+ Ascend fully before accelerating to avoid crashing into objects
+ Tap brakes gently while airborne to hover and line up perfect strikes
+ Activate Missile and Bombing Modes to launch deadly barrages
+ Utilize barrel rolls for quick evasive maneuvers if getting locked onto by missiles
+ Approach runways slowly when landing - these jets explode easily! Check out this quick video example of me demonstrating attack helicopter takedowns using flawless jet control:
