YCT-1 Nagual
Yaoyocamatetl Tepozzo-1 Nagual is an armored fighting vehicle design used in the infantry fire support role. It is produced through the conversion of older O74 MBTs, replacing the original turret with a purpose built model armed with two 30mm automatic canons, one automatic grenade launcher and four ATGM launchers. The YCT-1 is also fitted with additional ERA fixed over the O74 hull, as well as modernized sights and targetting systems. The YCT-1 is treated as an upgrade conversion package to the O74 and is exported to O74 users internationally. It is well suited to urban combat due to its suite of weapon systems and superior protection compared to equivalent IFVs due to the O74's base armor with added ERA protection against shaped charges with some protection against anti-tank kinetic penetrators.
O74 Itzpapalotl
O74 Itzpapalotl
Zacapine Army MRL built on O74 hull equipped with a 220mm rocket launcher weapon system with 30 launch tubes. O74 Itzpapalotl is not exported to any country and is only utilized by the Zacapine armed forces as self-propelled rocket artillery. The launcher of the O74 Itzpapalotl is capable of firing rockets fitted with thermobaric warheads. It is designed to attack entrenched and fortified enemy positions and light vehicles.
O74YN
Modernization package for the O74 developed in 1997, the most common O74 variant in active service with the Zacapine army and others in present day. Includes an improved welded turret, modernized ERA and countermeasures, new thermal sight for the gunner and addition of CITV commanders thermal sight.
O74YNA
Upgraded version of O74YN1 with the addition of a modern hard kill active protection system and set of laser warning receivers. It was the most advanced armored vehicle in the Zacapine armed forces prior to the entry of the O17 into active service.
