Brazil: Army Plans Purchase of 221 8×8 Vehicles

The Brazilian Army is conducting feasibility studies for the acquisition of up to 221 armored cavalry combat vehicles, or VBC-CAV, in an 8×8 configuration, armed with at least one 105mm cannon. The guideline determines the creation of a team responsible for feasibility studies and the preparation of the proposed model to be followed, so as to be procured before 2026.

In addition the establishment of an integrated logistics support contract (SLI) is planned

Confirming this acquisition, the Brazilian Armored Force corrects chronic deficiencies in firepower and anti-car combat capacity within Mechanized Cavalry regiments and squadrons.
