Nah, it should be:
>Brazil (sheer size and Embraer being competent)
>Colombia (due US support against narcos)
>Peru/Chile (they have a longstanding rivalry which is why they are this high)
>Ecuador (due being rivals with Peru but having less manpower and cash)
>Venezuela (let's face it, they are the true Russia of SA, with Brazil being US)
Argentina at a time would have been up there with Brazil, but after multiple "modern" governments and the usual western urbanite evolution don't expect much on their part.
