A couple of weeks ago I ordered a selection of 1/3000th scale modern Argentinian warships from Navwar, to use as alternative opposition for my Chilean forces. I put them away and forgot about them but found them this morning. I'm using a time frame of the early 2000's for the project, which means that the Argentinian Navy still retains some effective capability, in surface if not submarine warfare, even though its a relatively small naval power. There are four Almirante Brown destroyers, six Espora class frigates and three Drummond class corvettes, as well as a couple of subs and a few FAC's. At least they won't take long to paint!
I have been fallowing Argentina's military stagnation and can only say things have not been doing their way for decades. Should still be a interesting fight.
ReplyDeleteIt's a sad decline, which is why an earlier timeframe makes sense.
