The helicopter handles quite well in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]'' compared to the [[Maverick]] due to its low weight, but has taken a slight downturn in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]''. It can fit two people inside and is great for transporting a body guard in GTA Vice City or a homie in GTA San Andreas. While it's not as fast as the [[VCN Maverick]] or the [[News Chopper]], the Sparrow is easier to use, being a perfect choice for practice flying. |

Template:Infobox vehicles The Sparrow is a helicopter featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars and Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Cayo Perico Heist update.
Design
3D Universe
The Sparrow is based on the Bell Model 47 "Sioux" (more specifically on the "G-series"), a light helicopter distinguished by its small cab and an exposed welded-tube tail rotor, resulting in a lightweight vehicle. The Sparrow retained its design between games, aside from the door details on the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas rendition, where the windows are more squared and straight than those on the Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories renditions.
The Sparrow is only available in a grey color in the Vice City renditions and white in the San Andreas rendition.
HD Universe
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
The helicopter appears slightly more compact than its original appearance, with the tail being reduced in size and no longer sporting the original exposed frame. Despite this, it still appears as a compact helicopter featuring machine guns. It only appears during certain missions, alongside the Defender, a similar attack helicopter.

Performance
3D Universe
The helicopter handles quite well in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City compared to the Maverick due to its low weight, but has taken a slight downturn in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. It can fit two people inside and is great for transporting a body guard in GTA Vice City or a homie in GTA San Andreas. While it's not as fast as the VCN Maverick or the News Chopper, the Sparrow is easier to use, being a perfect choice for practice flying.
The helicopter's weak point is its uncovered engine. Although if the player hit any door in the helicopter, it will be removed like in cars, making the first helicopter to have removable doors, but few shots are enough to bring it out of the air, proving that it has no armor.
