Hispanic Ground Forces

Argentina - Spain - Chile

What is the Hispanic tree?

The Hispanic Techtree comprises the countries that have Spanish as an official language, with Spain, the language’s creator, being the primary country. Chile and Argentina share historical ties, as both countries were part of the Spanish empire from the 16th century and later gained their independence from Spain in the 19th century, with Argentina helping Chile in its independence process. They are also sister nations and neighbors. The three nations share a language, history, and culture. The King of Spain visits Chile and Argentina every time there is a presidential change of command, highlighting the strong bond and brotherhood that exists today. Military exchanges and joint exercises conducted annually are also noteworthy.

Why Chile and Argentina and not other Hispanic countries?

Historically, Chile and Argentina have been the main Hispanic military powers in Latin America, making them the countries with the greatest potential to contribute vehicles. They also stand out for having developed national military vehicle manufacturing industries; for example, Argentina with its Nahuel and TAM tanks, and Chile with its Piranha armored vehicles in various armament configurations. Other Hispanic nations in Latin America either completely lack tanks or possess very obsolete tanks that are not viable for the highest ranks of the game. Peru is a special case, as it will be the third technological sub-tree, which is the game’s limit per nation, because it has interesting options that help fill specific gaps in the Hispanic tree. They also recently signed agreements for the acquisition of state-of-the-art vehicles, so they will be a great contribution to the top tier. The other Hispanic countries will contribute interesting premium/event vehicles.

What about Brazil?

Brazil, despite being a Latin American country, is not considered a Hispanic country since its official language is Portuguese and it gained independence from Portugal, not Spain like other Latin American countries. Brazil could be included in the game as part of a complete Latin American tree or together with Portugal.

Why add the Hispanic Tech Tree?

Currently in War Thunder, there is little to no representation of Hispanic countries, and the vehicles that are present are scattered across different tech trees, mostly as premium or event vehicles. Argentina is a small exception, concentrating its vehicles in Germany, but again, its representation is limited beyond filling gaps in that tech tree. Adding a Hispanic tech tree is the perfect opportunity to finally unify all these vehicles into a single tech tree. Furthermore, it allows us to add all the unique vehicles these countries possess, with Spain standing out as the leading nation and the Hispanic country with the largest number of unique and domestically produced vehicles. Chile and Argentina follow, also contributing many unique vehicles, many of which are popular on the forum and are frequently requested for inclusion. The following suggestion will provide a detailed look at all of these vehicles.

Leopard 2E Tortuga

• Description:
  • The prototype upgrade for Spain’s Leopard 2E tanks was codenamed Tortuga (Turtle) and aimed to improve the tank’s capabilities in urban combat environments. The main improvement was spaced mesh armor covering the entire hull, sides, and rear of the turret. Additionally, a camouflage net was added to the tank, reducing its visibility to thermal signatures and thus making it less vulnerable to anti-tank missiles. While other improvements exist, they are classified, so details are unavailable.

[RDXRooster63]

always +1 to more TT’s unless they have an egregious amount of CnP

[ChieftainWarrior]

Looks good! Thanks for linking a bunch of my suggestions too :)

---

@Chilean_Thunder

The Pegaso VEC is a derivative of the BMR-600, a 6x6 armored personnel carrier developed in Spain in the 1970s. This version is equipped with an unknown model turret mounting the 90mm Cockerill Mk. III cannon.

It’s the Lynx 90 turret; see here. Worth noting one of the major upgrades over the H 90 (on vehicles like the AML-90) is it has a laser rangefinder, so 6.7 is quite a low BR for it.

[DMYEugen]

Tentative +1 since it’s incredibly unlikely. Gaijin just added the Pucara to Germany so I do not think there’s any chance of a Hispanic tree in the near or even far future. That being said, the lack of additional Mexican vehicles is definitely a critique I have. I know they don’t have too many things but you could have at least added the DN-V Bufalo or one of the HWK-11s.

[Chilean_Thunder]

I was very inspired by your work; it was a great help in learning about many Spanish vehicles I didn’t know, so I thank you for that. And well, I made this suggestion to increase the options and probability of adding Latin America and Spain to the game.

@ChieftainWarrior

It’s the Lynx 90 turret; see here. Worth noting one of the major upgrades over the H 90 (on vehicles like the AML-90) is it has a laser rangefinder, so 6.7 is quite a low BR for it.

Ah, I didn’t know that, thank you very much for the information. I tried to find information on the turret myself but couldn’t find it, and I only used the vehicle and the cannon to determine the BR in the tech tree.

[Chilean_Thunder]

Well, Smin said that the Argentinian vehicles are in Germany for now only because there’s nowhere better to put them at the moment. The same goes for the Pucara; they added it in Germany simply because they had nowhere else to put it. Regarding Mexico, it’s well known that they have almost no combat vehicles, and those they do have are of very low BR. The same applies to the air tech tree, so it was a logical decision not to add more, since the game currently has the main nation and up to three sub-trees, so Mexico wasn’t really an option. In the air tech tree I’m working on, the third nation is Peru, which has interesting options and will now have the F-16V, so it’s logical to choose it over Mexico, which only operates basic F-5Es.

[el_Argentino]

+1 for this
It looks great, good job bro

[Metal_Bandit]

+1 Looks very solid and potent tree.

You have plan for create Air and naval aswell??

You can add more vehicles used or created by Spain like M56 scorpion or M41 “Hako” .
Another small detail the AML-90 is not longer in service is only used by ceremonial parades.

This is great, really well made and all. But I don’t think I can support it when it excludes so much and the LatAm tree has all that.

I suppose variety on the menu won’t hurt anyone, as long as Gaijin understands that we also want to eat.

[JamesPond1200-psn]

Yeah, but I really want to see the proposed LatAm tree implemented. Also the combo of Spain and two South American nations is a bit weird IMO

[el_Argentino]

@JamesPond1200-psn

Yeah, but I really want to see the proposed LatAm tree implemented. Also the combo of Spain and two South American nations is a bit weird IMO

What do you mean by weird?

[JamesPond1200-psn]

It just feels odd and out of place to have a Euro country and two South American nations. This also kinda feels like a Spanish tree with the other two as filler.

[AspandaIV]

Also it excludes Portugal as well. A Lusophone TT would flat out not work

Another thing to point out is that Latin America flat out do not like the Old World Iberians especially the Spanish, some more than others but it’s a shared sentiment so adding Spain to a New World Hispanic or LATAM TT would not be a great look.

It would make more sense to make a V4 TT so Hungary can move out of the Italian TT and the Old World Iberians can be the new Italian Subtree or pair the Old World Iberians with the Alpine TT proposal since they do have a lot of affinity towards each other. Even co-operated with each other in weapons development

[el_Argentino]

I understand your perspectives, and they are valid. I respect their opinions a lot.

[Chilean_Thunder]

Sure, I’ve already got the aerial tech tree ready. I’m working on the suggestion right now, but it’s a lot of work since I have to write a lot and find the sources. You’ll see it on the forum soon too. If you have any vehicles you’d like to suggest, it would be helpful if you could show me a picture and source so I can add them.

@JamesPond1200-psn

This is great, really well made and all. But I don’t think I can support it when it excludes so much and the LatAm tree has all that.

The Latin American tree already exists for that purpose; I’m creating more alternatives. This suggestion focuses on Spain, along with the Hispanic American countries that could contribute the most, keeping in mind that there’s a maximum of three sub-trees that can accompany it.

@JamesPond1200-psn

Yeah, but I really want to see the proposed LatAm tree implemented. Also the combo of Spain and two South American nations is a bit weird IMO

I don’t understand why it would be strange considering that Spain is the mother country of the Hispanic American countries that derive from the Spanish empire.

@JamesPond1200-psn

It just feels odd and out of place to have a Euro country and two South American nations. This also kinda feels like a Spanish tree with the other two as filler.

You have to see this suggestion as Sweden and the other Nordic countries; Sweden is the main nation while Finland, Denmark, and Norway are sub-trees since they share culture, just like Spain and the Hispanic American countries.

@AspandaIV

Also it excludes Portugal as well. A Lusophone TT would flat out not work

For that, someone could create an Iberian technological tree that includes Spain and Portugal; as I said before, I’m exploring options.

@AspandaIV

Another thing to point out is that Latin America flat out do not like the Old World Iberians especially the Spanish, some more than others but it’s a shared sentiment so adding Spain to a New World Hispanic or LATAM TT would not be a great look.

I disagree with that. While it’s true that some people dislike Spain because of the historical issues with the indigenous peoples of the Americas, generalizing about the entire Hispanic American population doesn’t seem right to me. It also depends on a person’s political ideology, but I don’t want to get into such an irrelevant topic.
