The basic outfit of the ''Bataís'' features a 7.62mm or .50 caliber machine gun and seating for three crew and ten men, though in practice, eight were seated as dismounts. Crew consist of a commander/radio operator, driver, and gunner. Optional variations in armament included a 1" autocannon or an ATGM launch system, both of which require the gunner to sit below and use a periscope or modern optics depending on the model (this must be reloaded by hand, typically with 4 or 6 total rounds in most doctrines depending on the seating of 8 or 10 dismounts). Modern variants include a counterspall lining, onboard computer, additional digital optics, and ergonomic, mechanical and engine improvements. Two engineering and two self-propelled gun variants were developed off the ''Bataís''.
