APC

The APC is a vehicle designed to perfectly synergize with an infantry squad and provide steady fire support for deployed troops. The infantry's job is to protect the APC's flanks from enemy AT infantry looking to close in and get an angle on the vehicle. This is easier said than done in urban environments. APC's like the Russian BTR shine when they are able to support a squad from a distance with their accurate and powerful weapons systems - a 300 meter "safe zone" around the APC, such as a field or open plain, will prevent the APC from being ambushed, and hitting an APC with a rocket beyond 300 meters, even a stationary one, requires an expertly aimed shot. The American Stryker is a heavily armored APC/IFV hybrid and a juggernaut on wheels - it is excellent at pushing through the hellish kill zones typical of urban areas. If you are unsure whether or not to take an APC, don't. Like all armor, APC's require skilled crews, and using one is a match-long commitment to close coordination and teamplay. Carelessly driven armor can cost your team the game.
