Specifies whether or not this InfantryType can enter an enemy VehicleType and capture it in a similar manner to an Engineer capturing a BuildingType. Also referred to as 'hijacking'.

In Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge, the InfantryTypes must also have Thief=yes set otherwise it will get the 'enter' cursor on the target VehicleType but will not, in fact, be able to enter it. Thief=yes also allows the InfantryType to enter enemy ore refineries, so the InfantryType also needs to be given Agent=yes and Infiltrate=yes (giving it full Red Alert 2 Spy capabilities), or Infiltrate=no

NonVehicle=yes set on a VehicleType prevents a VehicleThief from capturing it, however this also invokes additional, possibly undesirable logic.
