Argentina Aircraft Equipment

Description
DISCONTINUED.

This small mod should be compatible with any other mod that does not modify Argentina-specific files and keys. It is also included within my Argentina Quick Fixes mod found here: http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=700090662

The Argentina air equipment tree has been customized for flavor and historical accuracy/plausibility. Those who expect the Argentine Air Force's and Navy's Gloster Meteors, Corsairs, G.55 Centauros, Cougars, Sabres, Avro Lincolns and Lancasters to be included will be disapointed: those were post war acquisitions and there's a big chance you will take Argentina on a different diplomatic path anyway. Also, Argentina did not manufacture those under license afaik.

So what's included, then? All the aircraft produced under licence between 1936 and 1939 (with a couple of practical exceptions) plus all the aircraft designed by Insitituto Aerotécnico and manufactured by FMA, the first military aircraft factory of Latin America founded in the 20's. I did include some prototypes that did not go to production series and also a few that did not leave the drawing board. Of course, I did include projects led by Emile Dewoitine and by Kurt Tank during their post-war in Argentina. There are some cool planes in the list. Check their descriptions.

No stats were modified or anything that would unbalance the vanilla game. Also, please excuse my Photoshop skills as I'm not a graphic designer and had to edit (sometimes at pixel level) graphics found online.

Cheers.

Note: English and Spanish localisation only. UPDATED FOR 1.2.*

@Mattebubben - Thanks! The addition of the Huanquero as a tactical bomber is arguable, indeed. It was a multipurpose aircraft. The "U" variant was a bombing training aircraft and I did see photos of it displaying its bomb payload. Nevertheless, I may remove it from this minimod and move the Calquin a level up (as you pointed out would be best). I would also remove the Charran, which is a fictional aircraft I saw on Deviant Art but that I thought would add some more plausible flavor. I may post an update in a few days.

Having said that, please check the latest screenshot on the Argentina Quick Fixes thread on Paradox forums and you will notice progress on the National Focus tree and unlockable equipment.

=P nice mod in general but there are some additions i dont agree with (like the Huanquero on the 1944 tactical bomber slot despite the fact that it was not a bomber and did not have its first flight untill 1953 thus forcing the Calquin that would fit very well on the 1944 slot down to 1940 where its 6 years to early)

Would it be possible for you to release another version of the mod?

That contained aircraft types that were aquired during or just post war but were never lisence built
(As a what if scenario if they had gotten production licenses)

As well as leaving out aircraft that are to late to fit in the timeline (post 1952 aircraft).

Would that be at all possible and if so i would be very grateful =>.

@Stuart - As far as I know, it should be. Can't get Achievements with mods, though.
