How to unlock the Flash the Pan achievement in Saints Row: The Third Remastered - Definitive Guide

Gang Operations are areas of the map where there is a group of enemies you have to kill to destroy that "Gang Op". They show up as an icon of a fist on a pink diamond. You will find them as you travel around the maps as they dont automatically appear on your map until you find them.

There are 32 altogether, each area of the map will have different Gangs protecting them, they will be the Morningstar (Red gang), The Deckers (Blue gang) and The Luchadores (Green gang)

(Before completing these, you might want to take a look at the challenges list, either in-game (tp.png > Saintsbook > Challenges) or in this trophy guide at the "You're My Hero!" trophy for extra tips, since these can make other trophies/challenges easier).

There are a total of 32 Gang Operations in Steelport. Open your map and look for an icon with a fist on it. Once there, you’ll see a group of gang members with health circles above their head. Kill all of them and you’ve destroyed their gang operation. You can easily kill them in a matter of seconds by using a rocket launcher, airstrike designator or a tank for example.

The EASIEST way would be to spawn a VTOL, hover above the Gang Operation and you can kill them in a matter of second, which will also help with the multi-kill challenge. (Not to mention, if you stick around, you can get easy Brute and Specialist kills).

Some Gang Operations won't show on the map. If you buy most properties/complete activities, the map will turn purple. In the end, there will be parts of the map that are still grey but have no properties/activities etc. Check these locations for the last Gang Operations. You might have to look on the roof tops.

For visual aid, use this guide: Gang Operation Locations.

Gang Operations might also glitch. If you get near an operation and leave the circled area and go back immediately, the red health circles might disappear. If this happens, leave the area and get some distance from the Gang Operation. Go back and if the red health circle appear again, kill them. If you kill them while the red health circles are gone, it won't count as a destroyed gang operation and the enemies will keep endlessly spawning. Leaving the area will fix this.

The Gang Operations are represented by an icon of a fist. After completing a Gang Operation, you can see that portions of your map have turned from grey to purple.

You can tell where Gang Operations are located by bringing up your map and heading to areas that are still seen as grey. However, the icons for some Gang Operation missions will not be see on your map so you have to fly or drive around the grey areas of your map until you see a large group of gang members in one area. Kill them all and it will count as completing an Operation.

Note: The Gang Operations can be completed easily after obtaining aerial vehicles with mounted weapons.

We just search and kill. There is one thing, in the middle city (between the islands) in the center there is one of the gang operations on the roof of a high-rise building, for some reason the enemy concentration is not marked on the map until you fly nearby.

Look for them using a helicopter and also kill them from a helicopter (combat, of course) - a very convenient and fast way!

By directing an airstrike you can kill the entire gang in 2 seconds.

There is a chance that only 28 of the 32 icons will appear on the map. In order to find the remaining 4, you need to completely clear the map (complete all additional missions and buy all the real estate) so that the entire map turns purple. The places that will remain transparent are the approximate location of the icon. You have to look there. As a rule, the zones are small and there will be no problems with the search. On the middle island there is an invisible icon - located on the roof, the rest are on the ground.

Drive along the map when you see “Fist” or the inscription Gang operation is allowed - kill. Once killed, a counter will appear: 1/32 gangs killed, and so on until the end until the 32nd gang and .
