The HVY Gullcat is a World War II fighter plane featured in Grand Theft Auto Online

Grand Theft Auto Online
The Gullcat obviously takes inspiration from the Grumman F8F "Bearcat" except it has the prop setup of the Vought F4U "Corsair" and the canopy of the Hawker Hurricane, with the ailerons and nose cone of the Focke Wulf Fw 190. However, it generally copies the same weapons setup as the earliest variant of the Hawker Typhoon, which is twelve wing mounted machine guns (six on each wing) while having the nose armament of every early variant of the Focke Wulf Fw 190, which is two machine guns.

Its default armament is twelve wing mounted machine guns, with two nose mounted machine guns that fire through the propellers. The machine guns can be swapped out for twelve explosive machine guns, or four 20 mm autocannons, and two explosive machine guns mounted on the nose.

It also can have mounted rocket launchers which have a short range, and a bomb bay.

It can also have a propulsion conversion to a turboprop engine.

Grand Theft Auto Online
The Gullcat comes with a reasonably good top speed, with excellent maneuverability and armament, and a good turn rate, comparable to the Hayato. When fully upgraded, its top speed is on par with the slowest jet aircraft, and has a turn rate rivaling the Hayato, and the J1W7. When the turboprop conversion is installed, the top speed is improved, matching the Vestra, but when fully upgraded, it can compete with the V-65 "Molotok" in a straight line race.

In terms of weapons, the stock machine guns are capable of ripping an unarmored plane to shreds in four seconds, but when they are upgraded to the explosive machine guns, they can cause any armored aircraft to start smoking within five seconds of continuous fire, and can destroy armored vehicles in four passes. When they are swapped out for autocannons, the damage multiplies and they are capable of ripping wings loose in three shots. However, the autocannons can destroy armored vehicles in two passes.

The mounted rocket launchers almost completely lack in accuracy
