Ancient APCs (the Bradley has been in service for over 40 years) ain't tanks though.

IIRC, the Bradley got armour because it looked too much like a tank and that made it a more valuable target.

Isn’t targeting APCs considered a faux pas in war, a little less bad than hitting an ambulance, but still not nice?

It is not a faux pas - they are legal targets.

Not sure what you mean by "not nice". All of war is "not nice". Unless you're Pyro from TF2.

That level of hallucination is certainly going to come in handy when creating military LLMs!

I'm already imaging the integrated helmet AR HUD, with a (remote-operated) switch that just appends "in the style of Pyro's hallucinations in Team Fortress 2" to the prompt for the transformer sitting between your eyes and the helmet cams...

They have meaningful armor because they're actually IFVs (Infantry Fighting Vehicles), not plain APCs, they're designed so the soldiers can fight from inside them, which is hard to do from inside Swiss cheese.

No, there's no military on Earth that's going to let the enemy peacefully transport their soldiers around in APCs if they can help it.

Clearly not from practice and hard to see why since their whole point is transporting enemies where you don't want them.
