Time Stamps:
00:00 - Failing "The Green Sabre" whilst obtaining the AP/EC2 (All Proof and Exclusive Secondary Color) White Bravura and AP (All Proof) Sentinel
21:05 - Proving the AP Properties and showing off the AP/EC2 Bravura and AP Sentinel
This Method will work EXACTLY as shown on PS2, Xbox, PC, and Mobile since all of these Platforms/Versions allow the Method shown in the Video. It does NOT work on the Definitive Edition because the Sawn-Off Shotgun (or Minigun) will no longer move a wreck that is glued to the ground.
The NRG-500 isn't just for show to make the Video faster or anything. You literally NEED it for the Method since it's the fastest land Vehicle in the game.
The Parachute is NEEDED. Without it, you would not be able to destroy the Bravura. Like shown in the Video, make sure you punch off the passenger side door so you can enter and exit it quicker when it catches on fire.
The Minigun is NEEDED. Without it, you would never be able to make it back to the Bravura's wreck in time. It would always vanish. The Minigun is the quickest way and does the most damage to the Sentinel. A Minigun at this stage of the game can be found in THREE locations. One in Area 69 and two others in Las Venturas. One of the two locations is pretty safe in Las Venturas and easier to obtain the Minigun compared to another.
There's so many variations to obtain multiple Special Vehicles in this Mission. You can obtain the AP/EC2 Bravura alone, without the AP Sentinel. You could obtain the AP Sentinel alone, without the AP/EC2 Bravura. You could obtain the AP/EC2 Bravura together with an AP Sabre (not recommended) and you could just obtain an AP Sabre alone (not recommended). It's not possible to obtain the AP/EC2 Bravura, AP Sentinel, and AP Sabre at the same time. Even if it was, it's rather pointless for couple of reasons.
Make sure you go as fast as possible using the NRG-500 on the way to Sweet's location. When you arrive, put about 100 bullets of the Minigun into ANY Sentinel scattered around Sweet and the Gang Members. This is what actually "converts" the Sentinel into AP form. Without doing this, it's not AP and if CJ enters it at ANY STAGE without doing this and have it smoking like that, the AP Properties will never be applied! Get into the AP Sentinel and drive it as quickly as you can and try not to crash! You also want to have the rotating camera pointed in the direction of where the Bravura's wreck is. This is VERY important! If you're too slow in this entire process and/or not good with the camera control whilst driving the Sentinel, then the Bravura's wreck will never be there!
When you arrive back to the Bravura's wreck, park the AP Sentinel somewhere like I shown in the Video, and grab the nearby Armor while keeping the camera on the wreck of the Bravura. Once the Mission finally fails, begin to shoot the wreck of the Bravura back to Verdant Bluffs/El Corona using either the Sawn-Off Shotguns OR Minigun. These are the only two Weapons and the only way possible to move the Bravura's wreck since it's glued to the ground!
Keep an eye on the wreck at all times and drive the AP Sentinel along with you back to the Garage. Watch out for the annoying Cops and Gangs that plague El Corona! They love annoying you whilst shooting the wreck back. I mean, just watch the Video and see how bad it can get! I had a LOT of issues recording this Video, in fact, all because of the Gangs and it always happened on the street the Safehouse was located on, too!
If this is too much for you, you can obtain the Bravura alone and take an easier Route back to the Garage where no Gangs spawn. But even here, you can have them spawn all around the Garage area itself and do the same damage to CJ in the process! Best to get both at the same time for one less Mission Attempt, anyways.
USUALLY I'd recommend getting the second instance of a Special Vehicle due to having more storage space later on, but in regards to the AP Sentinel, I actually RECOMMEND to get it from this Mission. It's much easier and quicker to get it from here and it doesn't exactly help to get it later on. Most likely, whether you obtained it in THIS Mission or later on, you'd still end up with the same amount of Special Vehicles in your collection, anyways. When you leave Los Santos, you can have a grand total of 29 Special Vehicles. I've always got everything I wanted and left with 27, and that is counting this AP Sentinel. No reason to skip it and get the second one!
The Sentinel featured in the Mission has Traffic Default Colors and changes upon reloading the Mission. None of them are special.
The EC2 on this Bravura can not be seen in-game and can only be seen when viewing your Save File under a Save Editor. Visually in-game, it will look like any ordinary Bravura.
I am recording this Video on PCSX2 Version 1.6.0. Game Version is SLUS-20946 (Version 1.03) of GTA San Andreas for PS2.
