The first new edition of the ARGEX series once again covers close to 50 exercises, simulations and drills totalling more than 200 days of field activity for the year ending 31 December 2012.
“Don Torcuato”, Argentina’s first privately-owned international airport, marked its 40th anniversary in August 1987 by hosting a two-day air festival that attracted a most interesting collection of representatives from that decade. Go back in time with us and enjoy a colourful pictorial of this event…
Improving this classical Aeromilitaria Argentina reference, we bring the catalogue up to date and illustrate it with images for many of the 180+ aircraft and hot air balloon types operated by the service since 1912.
In one more Argentine military aviation exercises index, we disclose an updated version of our original Aeromilitaria Argentina index for year 2004. This more complete alternative reviews nearly 50 exercises, simulations and drills totalling at least 240 days of activity on the field. Another “international” year, 2004 was packed full of combined exercises, including exceptional events such as two different UNITAS phases, a Gringo Gaucho carrier qualification tour onboard USS Ronald Reagan and a (now) rare Argentine-British maritime search and rescue cooperation exercise.
The second Argentine military aviation exercises index in the “Gaceta Aeronáutica Age” is actually an updated version of our original Aeromilitaria Argentina index for 2005. This more complete variant reviews more than 35 exercises, simulations and drills totalling more than 220 days of activity on the field. An apparently “international” year, 2005 is full of combined exercises where Argentine armed forces tested their combat fitness with foreign forces in “trade-mark” exercises such as Plata, Panamax, Fraterno, UNITAS and Viekaren; as well as the one-off Ceibo 2005. Homeland training was also fairly active, with services deploying throughout the nation for both internal and joint manoeuvres.
The first Argentine military aviation exercises index in the “Gaceta Aeronáutica Age” comes packed with over 70 exercises, simulations and drills totalling at least 329 days of activity on the field. In spite of ever present budgetary limitations and a couple of congressional mishaps, Argentine armed and paramilitary forces managed to complete an interesting menu of exercises throughout 2010, including named classics such as Valkyria III and Ícaro III (Air Force specific), Rio III and Tanque (Argentine/Uruguayan) as well as Gringo Gaucho/Southern Seas, UNITAS LI, Fraterno XXVIII, Panamax and Atlasur VIII (naval air cooperation manoeuvres, in a variety of flavours).
Migrating and updating yet another Aeromilitaria Argentina legacy component, we’re glad to introduce the renewed Argentine Military Exercises Catalogue to our readers and visitors. Starting with this brief introduction and start-up page, the Catalogue will provide yearly indexes synthesising all exercises, simulation and training sessions unearthed by our research. We hope this new Gaceta Aeronáutica section will become a valued reference for all those interested in gaining a structured and profound knowledge of Argentine military air training doctrine and practice throughout the years.
