The Remote Sniper is a high-powered sniper rifle that only appears during a mission in Grand Theft Auto V and cannot be used in free-roam without modifications.
Description
The weapon is a Heavy Sniper placed on a gun mount thus it is based on the high caliber Barrett M82 rifle and the M82A1. The weapon is only used during a mission where the player has to shoot down a jet with the sniper and then destroy a van with it. This weapon cannot be obtained in free-roam.
This weapon features a high-tech scope that can zoom in very far and show wind direction. The Remote Sniper allows for accurate shots as it does not sway in the wind. It has a lower fire rate than the Heavy Sniper.
