Export-Only Tanks & Other Afvs

I'm kind of surprised that nobody has mentioned the Brazilian tanks yet, the Engesa Osório and the Bernardini Tamoyo:

 

Tamoyo with 90mm gun:

 

 

Tamoyo with 105m gun:

 

 

Osório with 105mm gun:

 

 

Osório with 120mm gun:

 

 

All primarily aimed at the export market, the variant of the Osório armed with the 120mm smoothbore cannon managed to beat the M1A1, Challenger 1 and AMX-40 in trials in Saudi Arabia in 1987.

Ken, my reading also says the M47 was offered to Canada, but they choose to go with the Centurion as it seemed the M47 was not going to be supported.
