The APC lends protection from small-arms fire to infantry units in transit. An element of 20th and 21st century warfare, it is often depicted in futuristic settings.

Armored Personnel Carriers are vehicles designed to rapidly transport infantry on the battlefield while shielding them from possible gunfire or shrapnel. They typically carry anti-infantry weaponry which can fire in a 360-degree arc around the unit, though more specialized units may wield heavier anti-vehicle weapons or defensive measures such as anti-RPG interceptors. However, their primary role is not to take part in direct-fire conflict, but to provide cover and support for the troops they carry.

APCs are a staple in many videogame genres, particularly first person shooters and strategy games. They often feature land-based or amphibious varieties, but are distinct from dropships in their inability to fly.
