Hispano-Argentina was an Argentine automotive and engineering company that manufactured automobiles, military vehicles, engines, weaponry, and parts for public works.
The company had two divisions, the automobile manufacturer (known for its acronym "HAFDASA") and the Public Works and Finances division ("CHADOPYF"), which worked separately. The company was a vehicle and weapons supplier for the Argentine Army and other local armed forces, developing the Ballester–Molina pistol.
