How Much Does It Cost to Raid a Bradley APC?
A bradley APC has 1000 HP. The cheapest way through it is 7× HV Rocket — about 1,400 sulfur to craft. Every method below is priced the same way the raid calculator uses, so the numbers always match.

| F1 Grenade | 40 | 2,400 | 3,600 | 1,000 |

Bradley Loot & Respawn
Bradley drops 3 APC Crates when it dies. They land on fire along with the wreck, and you can't put that out — the crash shows as a debris field on the map, so the burn is really a timer on how long you have to hold Launch Site against whoever comes to third-party you.
The pull is MLRS Rockets (98% per crate), plus Targeting Computers, tech trash and the odd M249 or L96. Once the body cools, mine it for high quality metal, metal fragments and charcoal. It respawns 1 hour after death, so a dead Bradley is worth coming back for rather than waiting at the monument.

Tips & Counters
Bradley stops regenerating health once you land the first hit, but it heals back to full over 60 seconds if you go 5 minutes without damaging it again — commit once you start, don't trickle damage in over a long fight.
HV Rocket is cheapest by sulfur, but C4 goes through it faster (30s vs 84s to place) — worth the extra sulfur if the base is online and you need to be in and out.
