Well...little shy about it by it would be great seeing those aircraft in Brazilian Air Force and Navy if possible.

Awesome! Really one of the better looking 5th generation planes I've seen.

According to these sources, Russia offered Tu-22M3 in India and Russian Tu-22M3 flown in Indian Bases:

What if the Tu-22M3 is in service with Indian Navy? The reason I did this is that the Backfire is one of my favorit Soviet/Russian aircraft and the design had been waiting in my computer since previous Christmas.

Eight airframes purchased in 2002 with Kh-15 missiles, later Brahmos missile integrated to the aircraft (weapon load of Tu-22M3 allows for 4 missiles, due to four 3-ton capable pylons) and Club missiles will follow in the future. Rumors said that Indian Backfire's can also launch Sea Eagle (I read that they did this in their Tu-142M's). In this scenario Indian Navy has also TSR-2 (not sure about Tu-142M and Il-38 yet).

Another AU Backfire (could not resist) in service with RHNA. But I think the Backfire is too large and expensive to operate for Hellenic Kingdom. The Martin Seamaster does the job perfectly.
Note that the Kh-15 missile has been integrated into RHNA's P6M, each of four airframes modified can carry total 12 missiles internally.
