LSA Operations are a series of Freemode Missions in GTA Online, given by Charlie Reed and associated to the Avenger property.
This job has been added to the game as part of the 1.67 Mercenaries update on July 13, 2023, and is available on PS4, Xbox One, PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
This is a Solo or Co-Op mode that can be played by 1 to 4 players.
Also initiated from the new Operations Terminal, the Los Santos Angels can take on three private contracts in daring LSA Operations. Each of these presents an opportunity to acquire an Outfit for first-time completion and rotate through optional bonus objectives with each replay for an additional pay bump. These include jumping out of a chopper and onto the deck of an aircraft carrier under cover of darkness, calling in a bombing run, and using an EMP blast to knock out a government installation. LSA Operations can also be launched by calling Charlie directly from your iFruit after your Operations Terminal has been installed.
These missions can be accessed from the console installed in the player's Avenger. There are 3 options to choose from for LSA Operations:
- LSA Operation: Direct Action
- LSA Operation: Surgical Strike
- LSA Operation: Whistleblower
These 3 missions are available to repeat infinitely and offer great cash rewards, between $45,000 and $75,000.
Additionally, these missions pose random bonuses that the player can complete for extra cash rewards.
