Argentine military

The Argentine military refers to the armed forces of Argentina, which consist of the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Traditionally focused on protecting the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity, the military has played significant roles in Argentine history, including political involvement during military juntas (especially from the 1970s to the early 1980s). It has undergone reforms to address human rights concerns and adapt to modern defense challenges. Today, the Argentine military is involved in peacekeeping missions, disaster relief, and regional security cooperation, aiming to balance national defense with humanitarian responsibilities.
