Quick answer
The July 2 snapshot reports SWAT at $6,000 with 150 HP, MP5, and Glock 17. It costs $3,000 more than Officer Elite and $3,000 less than SWAT Elite, making it a decision point rather than an automatic upgrade.
Early-to-mid progression
Officer Elite → SWAT → SWAT Elite
| Class | Cost | HP | Primary | Secondary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Officer Elite | $3,000 | 125 | M4A1 | M1911 |
| SWAT | $6,000 | 150 | MP5 | Glock 17 |
| SWAT Elite | $9,000 | 175 | Vector CRB | Glock 17 |
Buy SWAT
Your free checkpoint loop is stable, combat pressure repeats, and the $6,000 purchase does not delay a needed scanner or luggage upgrade.
Stay on Officer Elite
The extra reported HP or different loadout does not solve the current failure, or the Cash reserve is better used on checkpoint reliability.
Save for SWAT Elite
You can safely earn another $3,000 and prefer the next reported 25 HP step with Vector CRB instead of MP5.
What the extra $3,000 changes
- Cash
- $3,000 → $6,000
- Reported HP
- 125 → 150
- Primary
- M4A1 → MP5
- Secondary
- M1911 → Glock 17
The snapshot proves the loadout names and reported HP change. It does not prove that MP5 damage, DPS, reload, or accuracy is better than M4A1.
