The best of all Vehicles in the game, for it's speed and rarity. Allows island access. Can sometimes be purchased from players, but cannot be purchased from any NPC. This vehicle can be found in the Old Warehouse, one of the Special Encounters.

NOTE: Vertibirds can still be forced into encounters, even though they fly above ground and the critters they encounter are all on the ground.

Shoot One Down

Bring some Howitzer Shells to Barter Ground, load the big Howitzer gun there, and maybe shoot down an Enclave Vertibird to get into a tough fight with Enclave soldiers to possibly find some Replacement Parts:

Done via dialogue with an NPC at Barter Ground.
You can shoot at a Vertibird and have a chance to hit. You might miss, but if you hit, the aircraft is forced to a crash landing.
This creates a public location for all players to see, populated with Enclave soldiers who are very upset. As fast as they can, they will kill anyone who enters there.
If you're out of Howitzer Shells, you can bring 12 Explosive Rockets instead, to get an equivalent shot at a Vertibird.
