The alignment has been evident in recent months with:
Milei's visit to the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier
joint naval exercises
intelligence and security agreements
cooperation with the U.S. Southern Command
The Navy seeks to regain strategic capabilities
For the Argentine Navy, the agreement represents one of the most important incorporations in recent years.
The new platforms will significantly expand capabilities for:
oceanic patrolling
detection of vessels
maritime traffic control
aeronaval surveillance
protection of fishing resources
Official sources also clarified that the program will focus exclusively on waters under Argentine control and does not include the disputed area around the Falkland Islands.
The agreement thus consolidates a new chapter in military cooperation between Buenos Aires and Washington, in a context where Milei's government seeks to strengthen Argentine maritime defense and strategically align with the United States and the West.
