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 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.
