EE-12

Notes: This light Brazilian-made vehicle, which found prewar sales only to Angola, was pressed into Brazilian service when shipping to that country disappeared. It is a small, jeep-like vehicle, with a conventional layout. The top is soft, folding back if necessary. No weapon is provided, but there is a post that can mount any NLT, NMT, or NHT-compatible weapon, or an M-40 recoilless rifle, or a light ATGM.

Gurgel

Notes: This is a series of civilian jeep-like vehicles adapted to military use. They are produced using a large amount of Volkswagen parts. The Gurgel, like many early Volkswagens, has a trunk at the front of the vehicle and the engine under the floor at the rear. The X-12-L is the basic model, with a removable canvas top, a light winch at the front with 25 meters of cable, and a post for a weapon if the top is not mounted. The X-12-TR is similar, but is a hard top model without a weapon post. The X-12-RM is a hard top model with seating for only two, and a large cargo area at the rear. The G-15 series are long wheelbase versions, with models similar to the X-12.

Notes: This is basically a larger, light truck version of the BT-25. In this role, the cargo bed is usually covered with a canvas tilt over bows. The spare tire is usually carried in front of the driver's door instead of in back. The vehicle is not usually armed, but a post is sometimes placed behind the cab, mounting the same weapons as the BT-25.
