Learn how to get the powerful Rhino Tank in Grand Theft Auto III — The Definitive Edition. Find locations, stats, and use cheat codes.
Alright, so you're looking to get your hands on the Rhino Tank in Grand Theft Auto III — The Definitive Edition? This thing is a beast, and while it's not exactly something you stumble upon in a back alley, there are a few solid ways to get it. We'll cover how to find it in the game world, what its specs are, and even how to spawn it in if you're in a hurry (but be careful with those achievements!).
First off, let's talk about the tank itself. It's a serious piece of hardware, and knowing its capabilities can help you decide if it's worth the effort to track down.
Rhino Tank Stats
| Type | - |
| Top Speed | 49.71 mph |
| Engine Type | Diesel |
| Price | $110,000 |
| DriveTrain | All Wheel Drive |
So, as you can see, it's not the fastest vehicle on the road, but who needs speed when you've got a cannon? It's built for destruction, not for racing.
Rhino Tank Locations
Now, how do you actually get this bad boy into your garage? There are a couple of main ways:
- Import/Export Side Mission: The Rhino Tank is actually required for the 'Portland Docks Emergency Vehicles' Import/Export side mission. You can find it at Phil Cassidy’s Army Surplus after you've completed the story mission called 'The Exchange'. So, keep that mission in mind as a trigger point.
- Stealing from the Army: If you're feeling brave and want to go for the high-risk, high-reward option, you can try to steal it from the army. This usually happens when you've got a 6-star wanted level. Good luck with that!
Beyond those in-game methods, there's also the option to use cheat codes. These are super handy if you just want to mess around or need the tank for a specific reason without the hassle of finding it. However, a big heads-up here: using cheat codes will disable trophies and achievements for that save file. So, if you're an achievement hunter, you might want to stick to a separate save file for your cheating adventures.
| Cheat | Code (Xbox) |
| Spawn a Rhino Tank | > > > > > > > > > > |
| Cheat | Code (Playstation) |
| Spawn a Rhino Tank | > > > > > > > > > > |
Remember to input these codes carefully. If you're playing on PC, the codes might be different, so double-check those if you're not on a console.
Pro Tip: If you're going for the 'steal from the army' route, make sure you're prepared. Having a high wanted level means a lot of police attention, so bring your best weapons and maybe a fast getaway car (though you'll be ditching it for the tank!).
