Default Re: SP, MLRS and SPAA Developments

Brazil

087 Gepard A1 - according to Portuguese Wikipedia https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gepard and Polish article from 2022, bought only in 4/13 and delivered by 7/13 (now 1/05), similarly German Wikipedia. Seems, that the designation Gepard 1A2 was not changed.
No formation change needed.

109 Igla Team - according to https://armyrecognition.com/news/arm...-tass-50502161, Brazil ordered ordinary Igla in 1994 (I don't know when delivered, might be 1998 like this unit), but better Igla-S (like this weapon) only from 2010. According to Wikipedia, Igla-S was produced only from 2004.

110 RBS-70 Team - bought only in mid-2014 (now 1/90) - https://web.archive.org/web/20140307...m_0403141.html and the mentioned article. However, it should be RBS-70 Mk2 (better one, from Swedish oob)
Needs formation change (the earliest is 111 - Mistral Team - Available 06/096)

In 2019 Brazil bought also RBS-70NG, presumably better, but there is no corresponding weapon in Swedish oob.

(Mistral is used by Brasilian naval infantry only)
