Valkyrie Takedown: From Zero to Gyro in GTA 6 Online
So, you've stumbled upon the holy grail of aerial annoyances: the Valkyrie. This chopper's been buzzing your business ventures and griefing your beach parties since GTA 5, and in GTA 6 Online, it's back like a bad mullet with extra blades. Fear not, fellow citizens of San Andreas! This guide will turn you from Valkyrie victim to Viking vanquisher, ready to send that whirly bird back to the hangar in a fiery heap.
Know Your Enemy: The Valkyrie's Not-So-Charming Traits
Tip: Pause, then continue with fresh focus.![]()
- Armored like a shopping cart: This chopper's about as durable as a wet tissue against a cheese grater. A few well-placed shots will have it coughing smoke like a chain-smoking dragon.
- Guns, glorious guns: Packing miniguns and rockets, the Valkyrie can turn you into Swiss cheese from afar. Stay nimble, friends, and avoid becoming target practice.
- Troop transport extraordinaire: Don't underestimate the Valkyrie's party bus potential. Those side doors spit out griefers faster than a casino throws out winners. Be ready for a ground-and-pound beatdown after taking it down.
Weapons of Choice: From Peashooters to Sky-High Smackdowns
Tip: Read actively — ask yourself questions as you go.![]()
- Homing Launcher: The classic, reliable friend. Lock on, let loose, and watch the Valkyrie go boom with all the grace of a drunken flamingo. Just remember, dodging rockets is the Valkyrie pilot's party trick, so lead your shots wisely.
- Explosive Sniper: Feeling fancy? This bad boy lets you snipe the rotors off that chopper like a futuristic lumberjack. Bonus points for yelling "Timber!" as it plummets.
- Oppressor Mk II: Picture a wasp with the firepower of a tank. The Oppressor rains rockets and sticky bombs from above, making the Valkyrie a sitting duck (or, well, a sitting helicopter). Just prepare for some serious heat from angry pilots.
- The Buzzard Bait and Switch: Feeling sneaky? Lure the Valkyrie into a tight canyon or under a bridge. Then, whip out your trusty Buzzard and rain down minigun fire like a hailstorm on a birthday cake. They won't know what hit 'em (metaphorically, of course. We're not advocating actual cake-based weaponry).

QuickTip: Revisit this post tomorrow — it’ll feel new.![]()
- Terrain is your friend: Use buildings, hills, and even those annoying wind turbines as cover. The Valkyrie might be agile, but it ain't a ballerina.
- Think outside the boom-box: Don't just rely on brute force. EMP grenades can disable the Valkyrie's fancy tech, making it easier to pick off.
- The power of teamwork: Grab some buddies and turn Valkyrie takedown into a group activity. One distracts, the other blasts, and everyone laughs as the chopper becomes a flaming souvenir.
Remember, dear citizens, taking down a Valkyrie is all about knowing your tools, using your environment, and maybe adding a dash of creative chaos. So, go forth, embrace the inner Maverick, and show those aerial pests who's the boss of the Los Santos skies!

And just in case you were wondering, yes, I did consider suggesting using a jetpack and a flamethrower for a Valkyrie barbecue. But then I remembered that in GTA 6, you can probably just bribe the cops to look the other way. So, flamethrower barbeque might be DLC. You've been warned.
