"Floating Bunker". Review of AMTRAC.
AMTRAC - an amphibious tracked vehicle designed to transport personnel both on land and water.
[cut]
AMTRAC appears on maps:
“Noshikh Channels” in Assault and Capture modes.
“Wake Island” in Assault and Capture modes.
“Tehran Highway” in Assault mode.
“Oman Gulf” in Assault mode.
“Hark Island” in Assault mode.
AMTRAC accommodates:
The Driver. Their role is solely to operate the vehicle. No weaponry is provided for them.
The Gunner. They are equipped with a heavy machine gun (.50 caliber), capable of dealing damage to infantry, light vehicles, and aircraft.
The gunner also has a 40mm grenade launcher (with a magazine of 9 rounds), which can inflict significant damage on anything moving on the battlefield. They can easily target infantry hiding behind a container, for example.
The gunner can switch between the machine gun and the grenade launcher by pressing the “F” key.
The only drawback for the gunner is the difficulty in aiming when the driver of the AMTRAC begins to maneuver on the road.
Four passengers. They sit 2 on the left and 2 on the right. They have no capabilities other than basic observation.
The role of AMTRAC on the battlefield is often underestimated. This is because not many are aware of its unique capabilities, thinking that AMTRAC is some clumsy and useless machine.
Advantages:
AMTRAC has unlimited acceleration (activated by holding the “SHIFT” key).
Although the AMTRAC does not have additional options, the driver still has the ability to deploy smoke screens by default (activated with the Ctrl key).
AMTRAC serves as a spawn point for the entire team. This means that regardless of where on the map the AMTRAC is, all members of your team (not just your squad) can spawn inside it.
By default, AMTRAC is equipped with “active armor” (front and sides). This armor consists of ribbed plates, each capable of absorbing a hit from armor-piercing rounds, thus AMTRAC takes no damage.
However, the armor will be destroyed, leaving the hull vulnerable to subsequent attacks.
