The Thompson is a vehicle in Saints Row 2, Saints Row: The Third, Saints Row IV, Saints Row: Gat out of Hell and Saints Row (reboot).
Overview[]
The Thompson is the third fastest helicopter, but has unusual handling, but is useful for its sharp turning and quick maneuverability.
In Saints Row 2, the Thompson spawns at the Wardill Airport in the Airport District and is parked within the Airport Hangar crib. Sometimes it spawns on the helipad at the Stilwater Nuclear.
It is used in the checkpoint race in the Downtown District, and an unobtainable model of Thompson is inside the Stilwater Science Center. The Ronin use a unique unobtainable yellow/black Thompson in the mission "One Man's Junk..." to drop bombs on Playa as they ride to the festival via Shark.
In Saints Row: The Third and Saints Row IV, it spawns on a helipad at Wesley Cutter Intl airport.
Another spawns parked on the stern of a cargo ship to the west of the Organ Blackmarket in Salander. As space is tight and the deck is at an angle, some care is required to fly it away. In Saints Row IV, it is parked in the northern pier.

Trivia[]
- There is no Cheat for this vehicle in any game.
- The Thompson is a Light Piston Helicopter resembling a Sikorsky S-300, a Bell 47 and the MH-6 Little Bird.
- The name may be an oblique reference to the Gazelle helicopter - the Thomson's Gazelle is the most common type of gazelle in East Africa, and probably the best known worldwide.
- There is "sp_key" variant of Thompson in Saints Row IV, although it is never used in the game.
