The Brazilian Modern camouflage, on the other hand, is used to this day on pretty much every camouflaged Brazilian vehicle. It consisted of yellow, brown and green stripes and was seen on the X1A2 Carcará, a heavily upgraded American Stuart light tank in the 1970s. The Brazilian Historical camouflage was used before the adoption of the current camouflage scheme. It features the typical Brazilian modern green and brown camouflage, resembling that of the Japanese – although that is almost certainly a coincidence.Īnd speaking of Brazilian camouflages, we’ve prepared two for you as well. The M108AP (Brazilian designation for the M108) named Kiron was seen in Brazil in 2016, shortly before its retirement out of service. Recently, 10 of the now mothballed SPGs were gifted to Uruguay as a gift. Brazil bought 72 vehicles of this type in the early 1970s and operated them until their retirement in 2017-2018. The second Brazilian skin we’ve prepared for you is called M108AP and, as its name suggests, belongs to the M108 Tier 3 SPG. Aside from the name, the skin bears Brazil’s crest and flag and tactical numbers. Our Leopard 1A1 skin represents one such tank named Vasco de Gama – Brazilian tanks typically bear the names of historical figures, Brazilian regions or even mythical beasts. The Leopard 1A1 tanks are also still in service but they are being used for less important duties, some of them are already in a museum. Leopard 1A1’s still have a cast turret but feature an improved stabilizer, FCS, gun thermal shroud and its side skirts.īrazil also leased 91 M60A3 TTS tanks from the USA the same year and later purchased 250 German Leopard 1A5s, which now form the mainstay of the Brazilian tank forces. The first more modern tanks to reach Brazil were 128 Belgian Leopard 1A1’s purchased in 1995 and delivered between 19. Up until the 1990s, Brazil’s fleet of armor consisted of 421 incredibly obsolete M41 Walker Bulldog light tanks, acquired from the United States between 19. The Leopard 1A1 skin is, as its name suggest, a Brazilian skin for the Leopard 1 MBT. By performing a simple task every day, you’ll be able to get your hands on all of them. The Southern Cross refers to the constellation depicted on the Brazilian flag – indeed, this year the autumn event will be Brazil-themed. Apart from the Osório MBT, we’ve prepared for you several skins and camouflages that will all be available for free during the upcoming Beneath the Southern Cross event.
