Key Market Issues
The Argentine defense market has experienced a lack of investment due to the country's budgetary
constraints. Argentina's armed forces are using obsolete defense equipment which needs to be replaced by
more advanced equipment. There are many naval vessels that are not operational and need repair and
maintenance, but the armed forces' procurement plans are halted by a fluctuating defense budget. However,
Argentina is receiving help from countries such as Russia and China, who are ready to replace the obsolete
military equipment on credit terms. The country has also postponed many of its modernization plans such as
the replacement of the Mirage III fighter in 2009, due to economic constraints. However, it is expected that the

2. country will establish a strong defense force during the forecast period. In October 2012 a naval training ship
“ARA Liberated” was seized by court order from Ghana for its nonpayment of the loan to its
creditors during 2001-2002. Argentina had a debt of US$100 billion in 2001 which had been restructured and
30% of the amount was paid during 2005-2010. This default background may deter many companies from
investing their capital in Argentina's defense market.
Key Highlights
Foreign defense companies can supply the Argentine defense market through FMS arrangements. For
example, in September 2010, the Argentine government signed a contract with Russia to procure two Mi-17
helicopters for the Argentine air force. This was the first time the Argentine government purchased Russian
equipment. The majority of defense purchases from the US, which is the largest supplier of arms to Argentina,
are made through FMS. There are approximately US$ 25.79 million and $ 0.37 million of arms and equipment
sold to Argentina through FMS in the year of 2010 and 2011 respectively. Foreign defense companies can
enter the Argentine defense market through technology transfers, sub-contracting agreements and long-term
supply contracts, favored by Argentina's offset policy. For example, in October 2010, Brazilian firm Embraer
established a partnership with Argentina for the development of the KC-390 medium transport aircraft.
Argentina is expected to join the program through the Fábrica Argentina de Aviones aerospace company and
initially purchase six KC-390 aircraft. Additionally, Argentina signed an agreement with South Africa in 2010
to exchange their security technologies, participation in various joint training exercises, military health
development initiatives and rescue operations in the Southern Atlantic Ocean. Moreover, the South African
defense company, Paramount Group, and the Argentine company, Codesur signed an agreement in December
2012 to introduce Paramount Group's security and land systems, and electronic and aerospace systems to Latin
America. With a limited domestic defense industry, Argentina imports advanced defense equipment from
countries such as the US, Russia, Spain, China, Brazil, and Austria. During 2008-2012, the country imported
the highest share of arms from the US, constituting 78.8% of the total arms imports. During the forecast
period, the US is expected to continue to dominate the market, with China expected to enter the market
through the sale of helicopters. Argentina is expected to acquire fighter aircraft, including the possibility of
acquiring second-hand aircraft which would allow other European countries to enter the market.
