History.]
The "Desafiador" had its development begun in 1995, to become the new main MBT of the Plaguean army, replacing the "Knight M-19" (Plaguean Centurion.)
It production beginned in 2005, It would take more 5 years to make the Knight-19 be completely retired, with the Desafiador now being the oficial mbt of Plaguea, however, an improved version, the Desafiador-II/2 is being developed since 2023, and it's expected to be finished at this year (2034) however, this project isn't expected to replace the Desafiador completely when finished.
The Desafiador never seen combat on It 34 years of service, only having seen competitions such as the Rhouvois Competition at 2033 and Drills of Plaguean army a total of 10 Desafiadores were sold to Atrocha at 2033.

Safety and technology.
Special Battery cells:After the tank fuel ends, special batteries Will work for 2 hours to maintain the tank working,however, It functions and Speed are severely reduced, these batteries are recharble(or whatever is the word for It on english)
BS (Bacuum Systema/Jamming system:360 Jamming systems which detect and destroy teleguided missiles and drones aproaching the vehicle.
Smoke cammouflage(I found no other word to this): The Desafiador is Equiped with Special smoke bombs to limit the enemy vision.
Thermal tracking system: equiped Thermic vision on the turret, interligated to the multifunction panels in the Desafiador Interior, with these both systems being feed up by the Tank's internal Power.
