The Brazilian military industries have become one of the main branches of national exports over the last fifteen years, although it is a little known sector.

The great controversy involved in international trade is related to the real destination and the quantity of arms exported. Suspicions are that Made in Brazil weapons are supplying armed conflicts in countries that violate human rights.
