I bet gaijin would make it an event vehicle due to it being a prototype. Or better yet, a premium.
It’s a shame the IRL one is pretty much dead.
Long gone are the days when Gaijin added vehicles as premium/event for being prototypes. And that’s if those days were even a thing. There are multiple prototypes as researchable vehicles in game across all trees, with some countries relying heavily on them to fill in the ranks.

As Ecuadorian, Im happy to see our AMX-13 105 on this tree, I would love to see the tree implemented and hopefully we live enough to see it. +1
Another thing, due the variety of ascents from our region, It makes me think, gaijin, in some future, suposing than the tree is added, it would add a crew voice with correspondig at its nation?, I mean, Argentinian its already in game, brazilian had to be added, mexican as well, but, what about the others?, what dou yo think?, The snail will give us a neutral spanish for the other or it will add a propper “Lengauge”, I will like to know your thougts.

That’s a good question! Either Gaijin would go the hard way and implement unique voicelines with the accents of each country, or they’d go the easy way and simply pick a neutral spanish like you said. I believe they’d do the latter.
We’ve discussed this in our discord (link is in the OP) with Argentinians and Chileans within our team, and the consensus was that Gaijin should use the Mexican accent. It is deemed by them as the best, most neutral accent of Latin American spanish, and it is also an accent that pretty much every Latin American is used to, since Mexico is typically in charge of making spanish dubbing for movies for Latin America. But I’d like to hear opinions from more people, especially from other countries. Let me know your thoughts!
PS: My colleagues also made sure to say they’d hate if European Spanish was used. Much like any Brazilian would hate if European Portuguese was used for Brazilian tanks, I suppose. I think it’s very important to state this.

In the case of Brazilian vehicles, voices with accents from southern Brazil should be used, where Brazilian armored cars predominate. let’s create internal discord with Brazilians
Wow. Really 10k and so fast.
But were is brutal, interesting, playable Dodge M37/40?
Dodge M37 light truck up-armoured and armed with a 40 mm Bofors L60 cannon. It was built as a single prototype/proof of concept in 1981 by a naval arsenal called the Naval Arms Department under the leadership of Captain Juan Santiago Díaz Ximenez.
The concept for the original vehicle was for a very cheap and light armed vehicle that could be used on rough roads, including in the jungle or smaller urban areas if needed, in a counter-insurgency role. It would have been a faster vehicle than the AMX-13’s or M41 Walker Bulldogs then in use and a second concept vehicle using a different hull armour design that was somewhat reminiscent of a BTR-60 was also built as a competitor but was less successful than Juan’s vehicle during trials.
Both the Dodge and the other vehicle was not adopted because the Dominican Republic later purchased 8 LAV-150’s from the United States instead of using a domestically made vehicle, but the concept stuck around until eventually a domestic APC, rather than a mobile gun system like the above, was adopted in the form of the RM-79 later in 1981.
40 mm Bofors with front angles for shooting!
Also several Salvador freaks.

And also some famous Uruguayan OT-64 Skot. Yes - mostly UN forces. But in army use 106 mm recoilless. And maybe can creatively fantasize M2 Browning.

I think that this purchase never came to fruition, there was an offer from the United States, but at least I have never seen them in service here in Chile, there are also no photos. unless you have some source or photo that I don’t know.

Algeria used them as well.

We must agree that this is not even the mongrel syndrome, much less a disservice to any Brazilian policy or economy. But we have to agree that Brazilian armored vehicles are considered obsolete compared to international models due to several technical deficiencies, including less efficient design, inferior protection technology, less advanced weapons systems, less sophisticated electronics and communications, and challenges in maintenance and logistics. These limitations highlight the lack of modernization and investment in the capabilities of Brazilian armored vehicles compared to international standards.
In this case, the armored vehicles will be facing other tank models. Just imagine any Osório vehicle facing, for example, the most recent and advanced armored vehicles from the countries that are there in the focus tree. Don’t you think it’s unfair? If Gaijin is really going to add these vehicles, rest assured that they (or) will come extremely buffed, to be able to take care of other countries’ armored vehicles (which would be insanely abnormal). (or) these vehicles would be almost like BR 5 - 7 armored vehicles facing BR 10 armored vehicles (for example). Unfair, don’t you think?
