“	An armour piercing projectile fused with indirect RPG launchers.	„
	— In-game description

The ARC⧸RPG is an anti-tank projectile specially designed to be used against armored vehicles. Unlike its counterpart, it moves in an arcing movement, rather than a straight line.

Uses

Specifications

It has travel time and follows an indirect curved trajectory much like a Grenade.

It explodes on contact or automatically after 2 seconds if it's still in the air.

By default its explosion deals 600 Armour Piercing damage at its center and decreasing amounts in a 2m radius.

It's not very effective against most structures and awful against very resistant ones.

It is very effective against armored vehicles, however it needs to penetrate the armor in order to deal its damage. It has a 150% bonus to its base penetration chance (100% innate and 50% from its damage type), however it does not receive any other type of penetration bonus. It can disable their subsystems.

It is expensive and thus not cost-effective to use against infantry.

Storage

ARC⧸RPG does not stack in inventories (1 per slot) with two exceptions:

• in inventory of a player wearing a Heavy Ammo Uniform (stacks of 2 per slot)
• in ammo slots dedicated to ARC⧸RPG in certain vehicle or structure inventories (varying stack sizes)

It can be stored in Base stockpiles.

ARC⧸RPG crates can be stored in the stockpile of a Storage Depot, Seaport, or Storage Ship. Crates can be submitted to a Base to transfer their content inside into the stockpile.

Trivia

• Prior to Update 0.48, ARC/RPG was known as 'A.T.R.P.G. Indirect Shell'.
• Prior to Update 1.50 ('Inferno'), the ARC/RPG was a Warden exclusive ammunition type, which meant that Colonials could not produce them in Factories or the MPF.
