The Army has tended to be neglected by the government, being relegated to using obsolete equipment. The EEC, for example, retired its last M4 Sherman tanks in 1979. The Army still has large numbers of Leopard tanks, and UH-1 helicopters. Since the late 1970's the Army has gradually modernised, and indigenous equipment was introduced. Today it is regarded as a highly advanced Army. The Army has persued technological advancement in a curious way. While a lot of its capital equipment is quite old, Latin America has kept ahead of most of the world on network centric warfare, and battlefield management.
The Army's military commander is General de Ejercito Roberto Rodriguez.

=Combat Division Types=
 
-
 
-
==Amoured Division==
 
-
 
-
This type of division is the heaviest in the Army. It is intended to be used at the most difficult spots in both attack and defence. The weight of equipment fielded by this division however, means that its role is mainly defensive.
 
-
 
-
==Mechanised Division==
 
-
 
-
The Medium Cavalry Division has a similar organisation to the Armoured Division. The difference is at the Brigade level, in that where the Armoured Brigade has 3 Armoured Regiments, and 2 Infantry Battalions, the Mechanised Brigade has 3 Infantry Battalions, and 2 Armoured Battalions.
 
-
 
-
==Airborne Division==
 
-
 
-
Together with the [[Armada_del_los_Estados_Confederados#Infanteri­a de Marina de los Estados Confederados|Infanteri­a de Marina de los Estados Confederados]], the Ejercito del los EC's Airborne Divisions form a rapid reaction force. With recent expansions, the Army can afford to keep one Brigade from each division on 24-hour standby for operations anywhere in the world. To facilitate quick operation, Airborne Divisions are always based on or near [[Fuerza_A%C3%A9rea_de_los_Estados_Confederados|Fuerza Aerea de los Estados Confederados]] Bases. The standby Brigade is located on an [[Fuerza_A%C3%A9rea_de_los_Estados_Confederados|Fuerza Aerea de los Estados Confederados]] Base. Until 1999, the Airborne Division was the only type of division not to have the ability to deploy nuclear missiles, from 1999 onwards, Airborne Divisions received A-TACM's which can be fired from HIMARS.
 
-
 
-
==Air-Mobile Division==
 
-
 
-
The Air-Mobile Division is designed to have tactical mobility by helicopter. The division is basically the same as a light infantry division at the lower levels, differences include far more helicopters allocated to the Brigade, few armoured vehicles.
 
-
 
-
==Infantry Division==
 
-
 
-
The Infantry Division is the second-most deployable division type in the Army. It is similar to an airborne division, except that it possesses aircraft, and more vehicles. This division has a high degree of capability of counter-insurgency capability.

The EEC acquires its equipment from a variety of sources, much is also produced domestically. An interesting fact is that Latin American troops forward deployed to Europe use some British-made Latin American weapons, for example while home troops use the FN FAL produced by Fabricaciones Militares in Rosario, Argentina, troops based in Europe use British L1A1 SLRs made by the Royal Small Arms Factory in Enfield, England

Current revision as of 12:08, 9 July 2009

The Ejercito del los Estados Confederados is the land combat arm of the Confederate States of Latin America. It operates large expeditionary, and fixed land forces to accomplish its mission of defending the interests, allies, people, and Constitution of the ECAL.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Army is President Michelle Bachelet. She controls the Army through the Secretary of Defence (Ramon Diaz), who in turn works through the Seceretary of the Army (Pedro Alvirez).

The Army has tended to be neglected by the government, being relegated to using obsolete equipment. The EEC, for example, retired its last M4 Sherman tanks in 1979. The Army still has large numbers of Leopard tanks, and UH-1 helicopters. Since the late 1970's the Army has gradually modernised, and indigenous equipment was introduced. Today it is regarded as a highly advanced Army. The Army has persued technological advancement in a curious way. While a lot of its capital equipment is quite old, Latin America has kept ahead of most of the world on network centric warfare, and battlefield management.

The Army's military commander is General de Ejercito Roberto Rodriguez.
