The all new Valkyrie helicopter is included as part of the Heists Content Update to GTA: Online. The Valkyrie is based off of the real life Bell UH-1Y Venom "Huey". In GTA, the Valkyrie features two mounted mini-guns that may be operated by other players. There is an explosive cannon on the front of the Valkyrie which can be operated by the front passenger. The pilot has no access to any weaponry.

 

Heist required to unlock for purchase: The Humane Labs Heist [Heist #3]

 

After unlocked, can be purchased from: Warstock Cache & Carry

 

Price: $2,850,000

 

Player Capacity: 4

Cant see the side guns taking down a laser before he gets a lock on and blows the chopper to hell. Youd have to duck up and down, and zig zag around the skyscrappers to have a chance gunning down a laser and using the tall buildings for missile cover. Once a jet pilot saw that, he'd likely just say eff it and go troll elsewhere since the Valkyrie would be too scared to come out.

Anybody what heist this is from? A price maybe, or a few photos? :) Thanks everyone.

 

So far like the other new aircraft, it appears that you must unlock them by participating in the heists first.

Really suprised R* has taken this path, usually just releasing new vehicles for people to spend money on immediatly.

I cant wait to gun down the lag from the gunner position while listening to Ride of the Valkyries

 

or Fly into the sunset while listening to The End as a homage to Apocalypse Now

Even though I really want to check this helicopter out, I really like how Rockstar is making us work in order to just unlock the ability to purchase many vehicles and I think they should continue to do this with further updates.

 

With just about every update, I try everything out within a few hours then I'm back to being bored. With Heists, I still have lots to look forward to in the coming days including the Valkyrie.

You realize they are also integrating the same requirement to use the new vehicles in SP?

Not everyone has a connection good for multiplayer, but R* is trying to enforce Online required play to unlock this dlc for both Online & SP?

Why did they not do this before?

by my " experiment " in content creator , the pilot has no access on the third minigun but served for co-pilot instead . this third minigun is impressive and it can takeout police maverick by seconds but fires not fast as the side mounted minigun

 

for side miniguns , it fires not fast as ordinary minigun because it need spin first before firing . despite fact handheld minigun do not have recoils , side mounted noticeably vertical recoil , but still damage remain same as handheld minigun ( except all vehicle weapons in grand theft auto is unlimited ) . in addition , a lone side gunner able switch sides at will if other side is not occupied

Might be a dumb Q but, is this better than the Savage? differences?

 

Savage - has rockets, and its machine gun ammo is explosive like the Hydra and Lazer.

 

Valkyrie - has a cannon on the front which is pretty powerful and also 2 door gunners with miniguns.

 

Also Savage you are able to use on your own, but Valkyrie you need friends or other people with you to make full use of it

I finally managed to purchase the Valkyrie. Heres a detailed video look at it:

When you have all four people in this helicopter, it definitely kicks ass and is really fun to mess with.

How does a single gunner switch to another cannon (PS4), and can he switch to all 3 - front and the sides - without having to land?

A gunner can switch from left to right and vice versa by pressing 'right' on the d-pad.

 

They cant switch to or from the front passenger seat .
