Armored Personnel Carrier (Fallout 4)

The unnamed armored vehicle is an armored personel carrier of the United States Armed Forces before the war. It appears in Fallout 4.

Characteristics
The unnamed armored vehicle is a six-wheeled armored personel carrier equipped with a turret mounted gun and two forward mounted guns. The vehicle's main gun appear to be very heavy for its class, perhaps equivalent to a light tank gun, such as a 75mm or 105mm weapon, presumably intended to provide heavy fire support for dismounting troops. It has a cramped passenger compartment in the rear. Since one abandoned armored vehicle is on a small island in the middle of a lake, it is implied that the vehicle has amphibious capabilities. According to a sign located inside the APC's, on the rear wall to the left side of the hatch, power armor units were required to stand at all times during transit. Presumably, this is due to the bulky nature of the suits, and the limited space of the passenger bay.

Behind the Scenes
Owing to its interior design, wheeled propulsion and triangular nose, the APC seen has close similarities to, and may be based on the US Army M1126 Stryker ICV with smaller weapons and carrying capacity.
