These cuts are closely equivalent — the same or nearly identical cut across different butchery traditions.
Both are the flank/bottom-sirloin flap grilled over fire — fraldinha in Brazilian churrasco, vacío in Argentine asado. Same general cut, sister traditions.
These are near equivalents in the way butchers and cooks use them. If you can source either one, you're very close to the same result.
