APD Master Handbook Update (05/17/21)

[Winters 1950]

Chapter VIII - Searches and Seizures

 

1. Seizure of Money
2. Any person(s) who is seen involved with a robbery of any kind, inside an illegal area, charged with conducting a federal reserve robbery/drug trafficking/any robbery charge (example: Aiding in Reserve Robbery, Robbery, etc.), or interacting with a vehicle that falls into these categories may have any cash seized upon their search.

Chapter XVII - APD Aircraft

The Ghosthawk

1. Ghosthawk patrols may be used to respond to heavy gang activity.
2. The weapons may only be used on aerial, or illegal vehicles (including APD/R&R Hunters and Striders).
3. Must be sent a text to land or park and given 10 seconds to comply.
   1. Exception: Any variant of the Blackfish only requires a 5 second engagement period. Once the text is sent, if the Blackfish pilot elects to change the Angle of Attack of the rotors to facilitate flight (read: changing rotors to take off), the Ghosthawk is guns hot.
4. If the Ghosthawk is fired upon it may return fire, and that specific ghosthawk remains guns hot until the situation is resolved.
   1. This includes when the Ghosthawk is presented with a clear threat (Example: civilian with an explosive launcher that has engaged the Ghosthawk via text or an explosive launcher clearly pointing at the Ghosthawk in a red zone)
   2. If multiple Ghosthawks have been shot down in the same situation, any Sergeant and above may decide to return to the situation guns hot provided they notify a member of the opposing force.
5. If an APD Ghosthawk is stolen, the APD may use Any Means Necessary to recover it.
6. The “guns hot” call must come from a Senior APD involved in the situation.
7. Ghosthawks mirror the “guns hot” activity of other hawks.
8. A Ghosthawk may be authorized "guns hot" within the federal event's anti-air circle after bomb blows at a federal event in cases where civilians are holding the area without the intent to leave.
   1. Exception: Ghosthawks are authorized "guns hot" after bomb blows on illegal vehicles within the federal event's inner anti-air circle (this includes RnR armored vehicles).
      1. If an illegal vehicle is fired upon by the Ghosthawk and leaves the federal event's inner anti-air circle the Ghosthawk remains "guns hot" on the illegal vehicle.

I'm presuming this is so long as you keep eyes on it... Similar to PC with fed trucks...

No, it follows the same rules as if you have text engaged the illegal vehicle(s). This change is to prevent a text from having to be unnecessarily sent to the illegal vehicle(s) that the Ghosthawk has already fired upon to remain guns hot if the illegal vehicle(s) choose to leave the inner anti-air circle ring.
