The Heists Update is an upcoming content update coming to Grand Theft Auto Online in early 2015.
The Heists update will allows players to plan, prepare and execute multi-tiered Heists across Los Santos and Blaine County. These will require tight communication and coordination, with players taking on specified roles at each point to accomplish multiple objectives on the way to each Heist’s epic finale. Featuring new gameplay, new vehicles, new weapons, new clothing and much more.
New vehicles include the Hydra, the Kuruma, an unnamed attack helicopter (possibly the Hunter or beta Hind), a Maverick lookalike with weapons, an unnamed armored sports car and two new armored trucks including an unnamed APC and a small unarmed truck. There is a custom Karin Rebel that has a mounted machine gun on the truck bed. A large aircraft carrier is also present, and is most likely used to carry aircraft like the P-996 Lazer and Hydra.
A flare gun is also seen in the trailer.
