Mission 25 of 83Story mission
The three protagonists work a single job for the first time: a man is lifted out of an IAA building by helicopter, with Michael on the rope, Trevor flying and Franklin covering from a rooftop across the street.
It is the mission that proves the character-switching system as a tactical device rather than a travel convenience, and the template every heist afterwards follows.
Michael rappels down the Agency window while Trevor flies and Franklin covers from across the street. Michael's special ability is what holds the sixty per cent accuracy on the descent.
Ten headshots is the shooting criterion, and Franklin's sniper rifle from the opposite rooftop is the reliable way to take them.
Michael brings down the pursuing choppers; Trevor is flying rather than shooting. Switching to Trevor before the landing avoids a time penalty at the end, and skipping the cutscenes is what keeps the run inside seven and a half minutes.
3 criteria, all of which have to be met in a single run. Failing one does not fail the mission — it costs the medal.
Time
Complete within 07:30.
Accuracy
Finish with a shooting accuracy of at least 60%.
