Nice pics! I didn't know that there are still so many types of light tanks in service with the militaries around the world at the moment.

For some reasons I can't see your pics. ANyway, I will post the MB-3 Tamoyo here. I linked this website earlier in the thread about another Brazilian tank the doomed Osorio.

It seems the Brazilians are quite good at building tanks but somehow less successful at marketing them.

T-55 combines a high-velocity gun with a highly mobile chassis, a low silhouette n exceptional long-range endurance. Improvements over the T-54 include a larger V-12 water-cooled diesel engine with 580 hp rather than 520 hp, increased cruising range of 500km (up to 715 km with two 200-liter auxiliary fuel tanks which can be carried on the rear) rather than 400 km (600 km with auxiliary tanks). The T-55 also has two-plane stabilization of the main gun rather than vertical stabilization only n basic load for the main gun of 43 rounds rather than 34.
T-55 can ford depths of 1.4 m without preparation, has snorkel equipment which enables it to cross depths of up to 5.5 m at a speed of 2 km/hr. This equipment takes about 15 to 30 min preparation but can be jettisoned immediately on leaving the water. All T-55s have the PAZ radiation detection sys n T-55A also has an anti-radiation liner. Some T-55s also may have been retrofitted with a full NBC collective protection sys (air filtration n overpressure). A dense smoke screen can be generated by injecting vaporized diesel fuel into the exhaust sys. -
T-55s with "bra armour" semi-circular add-on armour, have turret protection increased to 330 mm (KE) n 400-450 mm (CE). Other improvements available include a hull bottom reinforced against mines, better engines, rubber track pads n a thermal sleeve for the gun. The 1K13 sight is both night sight n ATGM launcher sight. However, it cannot be used for both functions simultaneously. Optional sights n fire control sys include the Israeli El-Op Red Tiger n Matador FCS, Swedish NobelTech T-series sight n German Atlas MOLF. The Serbian SUV-T55A FCS, British Marconi Digital FCS, South African Tiger n Belgian SABCA Titan offer upgraded function. One of the best is the Slovenian EFCS-3 integrated FCS. -
