Notes: This is a small APC used by Brazil and Chile as a riot control vehicle. As the situation deteriorated, they were taken into service as surrogate armored personnel carriers. The AM-IV is basically an armored jeep with the driver and commander at the front, and passengers at the rear. A siren and flashing lights are fitted as standard. The vehicle has rear doors, doors in the sides of the cab, and firing ports for all crew members. There is a hatch in the roof, but no weapon mount.

Notes: Sharing many basic automotive components with the EE-9, the EE-11 Urutu is a Brazilian 6x6 wheeled APC designed for both domestic service and the export market. The vehicle has a driver’s hatch on the front deck, a ring mount (NHT equivalent) at the commander’s hatch in the center deck, and a hatch in the rear deck for crew access. Some versions are armed with a 60mm mortar, and a few are fitted with the same 90mm gun turret as the EE-9.

Notes: This Brazilian vehicle was first designed as a support and launch vehicle for a multiple rocket launcher. It has been subsequently used as a general ammunition supply vehicle, a battalion command post, an FDC, a battlefield mobile workshop, and a personnel carrier. The VBT-2028 has air conditioning for the cab. The cab has bullet resistant windows in the front and sides, and the commander has a roof hatch with a weapon mount (NATO tripod compatible). A 6-ton capacity loading crane is mounted between the cab and cargo area; four stabilizer legs are normally lowered when the crane is being used. Note that the cargo area has side and rear armor, but no overhead protection except for a canvas cover. This vehicle is in service with Brazil, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia.
