=='''Introduction'''==
=='''Introduction'''==
An airdrop is a beacon of hope for players in search of an easy loadout. Each airdrop randomly spawns on the Altis Island - anyone on the island has the potential to loot the contents of the crate.
The APD escort is normally compared to the civilian-spawned pharmaceutical truck robbery event. An APD officer holding the rank of Corporal or higher is able to start the APD escort if there are 45 civilians on the server at the time. The Corporal will pay a certain amount of money to start the event and will be refunded if the event is won by the APD. The starting price is based on the size of the escort.


In the past, the airdrop was spawned by staff members. Now, the airdrop automatically spawns based on the server's player population.
The APD must escort a truck full of APD evidence through checkpoints on their way to the drop-off location. All officers must use lethal weapons, and Corporal+ must authorize Jr. APD lethals. The APD must stop at each checkpoint and drop-off point for 90 seconds. If civilians intercept the escort, they'll be able to steal the gear from the truck. If the APD successfully reaches the drop-off location, they'll be rewarded based on the size of the escort. Once the escort event is complete, another escort cannot be started within 45 minutes of that point. If the escort explodes while in transport, the cooldown is reduced from 45 minutes to 20 minutes.


=='''The Airdrop'''==
You can find rules regarding the APD escort [https://wiki.olympus-entertainment.com/wiki/Altis_Life_Rules#Chapter_17:_Jail.2FFederal_Reserve.2FAPD_Escort_Rules| Here].
The entire server will be notified when the airdrop is inbound with a message saying "The Altis National Armory has called in a supply drop full of rare gear."


A red circle will appear on the map where the airdrop is going to land. This circle marks the kill-on-sight zone around the landing area. No engagement is needed within this marked area. Additionally, the APD is not allowed to enter this area unless they chase a criminal into the wave. Once the criminal is apprehended or killed, they must leave the area unless they are engaged by another criminal inside of the airdrop zone. The APD may not return for a second wave.
=='''Details'''==


Everyone connected to the server will be notified a second time when the airdrop is 5 minutes from landing saying "The Altis National Armory supply drop will be released in 5 minutes". When there is 1 minute left before the airdrop begins its descent, the server will receive another notification.
While the APD Escort is active, the truck can be robbed by Rebels, trying to steal APD and Civilian gear within it. While under the control of the rebels, it will require a 60 second timer to unseal the APD Escort truck.  
When the truck is unsealed the in game icon will change and alert the server of the truck being unsealed.  


Once the airdrop has been released, it will spawn about 500 meters in the air and make a slow descent from there. These final few minutes are crucial to the different rebel parties fighting over control of the airdrop landing area. When the airdrop lands on the ground, colored smoke will emanate from it.

Introduction

The APD escort is normally compared to the civilian-spawned pharmaceutical truck robbery event. An APD officer holding the rank of Corporal or higher is able to start the APD escort if there are 45 civilians on the server at the time. The Corporal will pay a certain amount of money to start the event and will be refunded if the event is won by the APD. The starting price is based on the size of the escort.

The APD must escort a truck full of APD evidence through checkpoints on their way to the drop-off location. All officers must use lethal weapons, and Corporal+ must authorize Jr. APD lethals. The APD must stop at each checkpoint and drop-off point for 90 seconds. If civilians intercept the escort, they'll be able to steal the gear from the truck. If the APD successfully reaches the drop-off location, they'll be rewarded based on the size of the escort. Once the escort event is complete, another escort cannot be started within 45 minutes of that point. If the escort explodes while in transport, the cooldown is reduced from 45 minutes to 20 minutes.
