armored personnel carriers
Military taxi vehicles
Armored personnel carriers, usually abbreviated APCs, are military vehicles designed to transport infantry troops safely through combat zones.
They feature heavy armor plating to protect occupants from small arms fire and shrapnel, though they typically carry lighter armor than tanks.
Most APCs are tracked or wheeled, can traverse rough terrain, and may be equipped with mounted weapons for defensive purposes.
