How to get into Fort Zancudo

You can walk/drive over to Fort Zancudo safely, but if you try and enter the base you’ll be met with lethal force by the guards. You’ll also earn a high wanted rating, so we’d not recommend it. Even when fully tooled up with powerful weapons, you’ll still be heavily outgunned.

Enter from the sky

The military base is patrolled by soldiers with assault rifles and Rhino tanks, while the airspace is defended by P-996 LAZER fighter jets. However, even with the fighter jets patrolling the skies, entering the base by parachute is still the safest method.
