Amphibious armored personnel carrier

Summary


In Tiberian Sun and Firestorm, GDI’s APCs had been completely redesigned. These new APCs were wheeled vehicles, and their machine guns were removed. Although no longer able to fire at enemy ground units, the APC still retained its speed, and could now travel on water. The amphibious abilities of these new APC units worked in the GDI's favour on several occasions, notably during the recapture of Hammerfest Base. Since the facility could not be accessed by road, the GDI had to send units up a river to recapture the base. During this assault, a GDI amphibious APC carried a group of GDI engineers who, upon reaching Hammerfest Base, and successfully deactivating the Firestorm Defence Walls surrounding the facility, moved in to establish control over the base.
