As reported by Zona Militar, the Argentinian Army is currently considering acquiring the M1126 Stryker Infantry Carrier Vehicle (ICV) from the United States as part of its evaluation of Wheeled Armored Combat Vehicles (VCBR). This proposal, which was initially put forward by the US government in 2020, has attracted renewed interest within Argentina's new Ministry of Defense, coinciding with recent changes under President Javier Milei. Sources familiar with the situation have indicated that the Argentine Army is evaluating the possibility of acquiring the Stryker ICV, which has a proven track record of service in various operational environments within the US Army. However, internal discussions are ongoing within the Argentine military as the proposal needs to align with the objectives of the VCBR Program, which aims to integrate a versatile range of vehicles capable of performing diverse roles within Armored Brigades and the Rapid Deployment Force.
