How to get GTA 5 Submarine "Kosatka" in Freemode (San Andreas Mercenaries)

GTA 5 Online players can get a submarine known as the Kosatka, which allows them to do The Cayo Perico Heist. Purchasing it in the San Andreas Mercenaries update is still pretty straightforward. Plenty of people still play this game for the first time, so let's cover how one can get this illustrious vehicle in a simple manner. First off, you need at least $2,200,000 to purchase it.

Some event weeks might make the initial price lower if a discount is available, but the Kosatka submarine is going to cost $2,200,000 most of the time.

GTA 5 Online players can spend extra money on the vehicle to get additional upgrades, although none are mandatory for doing The Cayo Perico Heist.

Note: This vehicle is not available in the single-player campaign. You would need to use mods to get it there.
