• Chopper Ride At Kirin-Do

After the cutscene of your character landing on Kirin-Do, quickly turn around and hijack the Transport Chopper. Though it isn't shielded from radiation, it makes getting to the Type-07 prototype and General Chang a lot easier.

• Faster Beacon Timers

You can glitch the beacon timer by purchasing the same item in the Merchant of Menace shop once the first beacon is deployed (this assumes you have access to that same item in the Mafia shop). Just beware that the maximum number of shop choppers delivering supplies is one; however, this glitch allows you to call in one chopper right after the previous with little delay.

At any time during the game when you have a vehicle that needs repairing or more ammo you can get both for free by doing a mission and canceling the contract. All you need to do is park the vehicle in the base where the mission is, accept the contract, and then cancel the contract. You’ll get the retry screen, select no, and then your vehicle is fully repaired and rearmed without losing money. You can then do the same mission at a later time.

• Hans Solo Skin

Press Left(2), Right(2), Up, Down, Up(2) at the PDA factions screen. Alternately, collect 20 National Treasure bounties.

• Helicopter cheat

An easy way to get a better helicopter with more rockets & better gun is to call in a "vehicle repair drop" or "vehicle ammo drop", throw your smoke signal and move away to get a clear shot. The helicopter that does the delivery is a Mafia owned one, shoot the pilot (easiest to do with sniper rifle) and the chopper should crash land without to much damage, calling in the vehicle repair drop is usually best that way you can use the crate to repair the downed chopper as it will get some damage from the landing.

• Star Wars reference

After capturing or killing the Ace Of Clubs, pay attention to the scrolling text at the bottom of the newscast. It is easier to see if you have the subtitles turned off. Eventually the text will read "Tipoca City: clones cloned." This refers to Pandemics Star Wars games, Clone Wars, and the Kamino level of Battlefront.

When you go to the South Korean base to accept the first South Korean mission from Buford, after he explains the mission, you can leave, accept it, or wait. If you wait, Buford will say he has a plane that is as powerful as a "Star Destroyer" in that "space movie".

• YAH-56 Gunship

This is an incredibly powerful helicopter gunship that is armed with rapid-fire 30mm cannon (grenade launcher), anti-air missiles, anti-tank missiles, and dumb-fire rockets. You must have an anti-armor rifle and a RPG or anti tank rocket. Grenades work somewhat, but are not recommended. You cannot use an anti air. Find one flying (try the North Korean Allied MASH, when you complete the second ACE contract you will "unlock" this). Once you are there, find a YAH-56 Gunship with the binoculars. Then, go to it and make sure it is over flat land. Take out your RPG or your anti tank rocket and shoot above it. It will fly down slightly. Then, take out your anti armor rifle and shoot the pilot (located the back seat of the helicopter). If you cannot see him through the glass, shoot under the cockpit. Once he is dead, you will have about $25, 000 depleted and your helicopter should land on the ground safely. Try again if it falls on its side or something else happens. Do not be afraid of the tail rotor. If it is half way in a rock, it does not effect it. Note : This strategy can be used
with any helicopter.
