Engesa was a Brazilian automotive and defense company headquartered in the state of São Paulo. Founded in 1958 by engineer José Luiz Whitaker Ribeiro, it produced jeeps, trucks, off-road vehicles, tractors, and armored vehicles for both civilian and military markets. Its military vehicles were sold to the Brazilian Armed Forces and to over eighteen countries, particularly in the Middle East, and were still employed in conflicts into the 21st century. At its peak in the 1970s and 1980s, Engesa was recognized as one of the "big three" in Brazil's defense industry, alongside Avibras and Embraer, but it could not withstand the sector's crisis in the late 1980s and went bankrupt in 1993.
