Navy
In the late 1800s, the Argentine Navy began modernizing itself. At the close of the century, the force included: •	5 armoured cruisers •	4 coastal defence ironclads •	3 second-class, high-speed, British-built cruisers •	7 modern small cruisers and gunboats •	4 destroyers and •	22 torpedo boats.

The most powerful ships (counted in the list above) included the Italian-built Garibaldi and her sister ships, the General Belgrano, Pueyrredón, and the San Martín, each at over 6,000 tons. Three older ships, the Almirante Brown, Independencia, and the Libertad dated from the 1880s and early 1890s.[3]

2 Rivadavia-class battleships were made in the USA and both of this class entered service in 1914–1915.
