R59 Maris | Carloso | MANPADS | 80mm | The R59 Maris is an advanced, fire-and-forget, fourth-generation man-portable air-defence system (MANPADS) in service with the Army since 1997. The latest version currently in service, the R59C, has a guidance system that incorporates ultraviolet and imaging infrared optical sensors, allowing the operator to engage targets out to 10,000 m with a maximum flight speed of Mach 2.5 and flight ceiling of 4,500 m. Resistant to countermeasures and other decoys, it has performed extremely well in trials, capable of engaging a wide variety of modern fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters with a high degree of accuracy and superior range when compared to its contemporaries.
Approximately 14,000 missiles are currently believed to be in the branch's inventory, with an undefined number of launchers. An even further upgraded variant, the R59D, is currently in development and is expected to incorporate a focal-plane array (FPA) image sensing device for increased range, precision and targeting capability. | ||
R46 Satre | Carloso | MANPADS | 70mm | Largely retired but kept in huge quantities. Tens of thousands of missiles are believed to be stockpiled. Some assigned to territorial units and reservists and noted for its ease of use. Others have been sold to private military companies and foreign groups supported by the Carlosian government. |

MV5295 Sentinel | Carloso | Tank destroyer | MV5295 | >1,000 | The MV5295 Sentinel is a heavily armoured tank destroyer manufactured by Misrias Steelworks. It possesses extremely high levels of frontal protection, including Reyes tungsten-titanium composite armour plates and the Cyclone active protection system. Its main armament is a 149mm smoothbore gun, capable of penetrating most modern armour, and capable of firing anti-tank missiles. The gun can be elevated and depressed using the vehicle's hydropneumatic active suspension. It has a secondary armament, consisting of a 13.21mm chain gun, mounted in a remote weapon station, and a 9.5mm coaxial chain gun.
Owing to its casemate configuration, the general strategy of the V5295 Sentinel is to stay in the rear of the battlefield, while providing critical fire support to more maneuverable armoured vehicles. |

MV3405 Sagrasa | Carloso | Armoured personnel carrier | Thousands | Since the 1980s, the MV3405 Sagrasa has served as Carloso's primary tracked armoured personnel carrier, consistently being upgraded and refined to meet new threats and improve overall performance. Starting in 2011, many Sagrasas have been upgraded to Mk.11 standard, which includes the installation of add-on appliqué ERA armour, cage armour, an active protection system designed to intercept ATGMs and rocket-propelled grenades, as well as an RWS mounting a 13.21mm chain gun and eight red phosphorous grenade launchers.
It has a capacity for a total of eleven fully-equipped soldiers and a top speed of 44 mph. While a replacement has been considered, the Sagrasa is set to remain in service with the Army in large numbers well into the future. |

The standard cargo-carrying variant is rated to carry a 14-tonne payload. It has since been adapted to serve in a number of different roles, such as a platform for anti-ship, ballistic and surface-to-air missiles, as well as mobile radar stations and rocket artillery. Its size, mobility and reliability has made it one of the most common vehicles of its kind and sees use in airports around the world as a heavy duty fire engine, similar to the MAZ-7310 vehicle. |

J52 Arcángel | Carloso | Heavy gunship | J52B | 96 | The Easun Industria J52 Arcángel is a tilt-wing heavy gunship based off of the M52 Alerión transport aircraft. As a tilt-wing aircraft, it is able to rotate its wings either horizontally or vertically, making it fully capable of vertical and/or short take-off and landing (V/STOL) operations. This ability gives it many advantages over comparable attack aircraft, including the ability to hover and land or take off in areas that lack a runway for conventional planes. It also possesses superior fuel efficiacy and range when compared to a conventional helicopter gunship. | |
J54 Alacran | Carloso | Medium gunship | The J54 Alacran is a tilt-jet medium gunship intended to complement and eventually replace the Carlosian Army's force of attack helicopters. It is heavily armed with extensive armaments and a suite of advanced avionics. | |||
J57 Ajutánt | Carloso | Light gunship Reconnaissance aircraft |
J57A | 24 (144 planned) |
The Easun Industria J57 Ajutánt is a tilt-jet light gunship and reconnaissance craft in limited service with the Carlosian Army. It was developed from a testbed for technologies used in the J54 Alacran. Development is ongoing. It it intended to be a less expensive, more numerous and more readily available complement to the J52 Arcángel and larger J54. It is expected that the full production variant will be fitted with extensive avionics to fulfill its intended reconnaissance role. | |
M71 Anomalía | Carloso | Utility aircraft | The Easun Industria M71 Anomalía is a tilt-wing utility aircraft, equipped with a pair of contra-rotating rotors. It is among the newest developments in Carloso's convertiplane programme. | |||
M52 Alerión | Carloso | Medium transport aircraft | The Easun Industria M52 Alerión is a Carlosian V/STOL tilt-wing military aircraft manufactured by Easun Industria. It features the ability to tilt its wings either horizontally or vertically, combining the cruising ability of a propeller transport aircraft with maneuverability comparable to that of a helicopter. Unlike the more common tilt-rotor configuration, the M52 Alerión tilts the whole wing, not just the rotor, and can apply more thrust to lifting itself off the ground. | |||
M58 Augurie | Carloso | Heavy transport aircraft | The M58 Augurie is a quad-rotor, tilt-wing heavy transport aircraft. |
