I love how it looks!
Greetings from South America.

What plane does Argentina use in your story?
One they purchased? Or one they made themselves?

Haha, I'm planning to do an Argentinian mecha girl too later, but I'm still not sure about their planes :p
Btw, that SAIA 90 sure looks cool :o Sounds fun to create one!

Well, the most iconic airplane Argentina ever used was/is the FMA IA-58 Pucará. A ground attack airplane. [link]

The SAIA 90 was a planned fighter, but it was never actually built. It would be nice to see what you make out of it (if you actually end up using that one that is)

Hmmm, the Pucará aircraft is interesting indeed :o But maybe I'll try the SAIA 90 for the Argentinians. The design looks pretty futuristic to me :)

I would certainly look forward to see what you end up doing with it.

If I may add, you can consider the Pucará for Uruguay instead, since its their main attack aircraft (Uruguay has no fighter or interceptor aircraft, just attack planes)

Ah, so the Uruguay is still using the Pucara? :? Nice idea!
And yeah, I'm also thinking to provide more mecha musume for Argentina, Chile, and Venezuela too. So far, I'm planning a SAIA-90 girl for Argentina and Su-30 for Venezuela, not sure about Chile. But if you have more other ideas, that would be great! :D

Well, the thing with Chile is that they are basically the most US friendly country in South America besides Colombia. So their air force is made out completely from US airplanes. Currently, their main fighter aircraft is the F-16, and so far they are not planning on getting other airplanes. Maybe in the future they might get the Eurofighter Typhoon to replace their old F-5 Tiger II, but they are also thinking on just upgrading their F-16s to the MLU standard instead (they will make the final choice between this two options on 2015)

Oooh, I see :o Well, perhaps I'll choose an F-16 for Chileans in my project since well, I've already prepared a Typhoon musume exclusively for the Europeans :XD:
But yeah, since those F-16s are upgraded planes then maybe I should add some extra features or hardwares on them ;)
