>Brazil story shows that even flexibility doesn't helps much when political powers restrict trade. Technical advantages matter much less. Japan is too much US-aligned to sell anything to anti-US customers (that niche already taken by China though), that means there will be serious restrictions in trade partners.
The Osório also failed because buyers knew Engesa lacked the experience and structure to reliably produce it, so even if it worked they'd have to deal with delays and early series technical failures. This won't happen with well established Japanese tank factories. I think they'll find viable markets in rich Western-aligned militaries in Asia and Oceania, such as Singapore and Australia.
