History in the GTA Series

Tactical gear in GTA grew out of body armor. In GTA III armor was a functional pickup with no visible model; GTA San Andreas gave it a visible vest and added police/military uniforms as rough tactical costumes. GTA V's heist system and GTA Online's later military updates (such as Gunrunning) brought far more explicit tactical clothing and armor variety into the catalogue.

What Is Known for GTA 6

Rockstar has not confirmed GTA 6's tactical clothing, how armor works, which stores sell it, or any specific armor values. Heist-style gear is plausible given series history, but no specifics are confirmed.
