For buildings of the same name in other Tropico games, see Defense HQ.

The Defense HQ is a unique Military building added in the Tropico 5 Generalissimo DLC. Once built, it provides a squad of Commandos.

Description[]

The Hexagon is the pinnacle of modern military architecture and a definitive improvement over the backwards five-sided designs used in some other countries. Some extremists have proposed a seven-sided military HQ, but they were quickly court-martialed education and sent to exile.

Upgrades[]

Flak Vests- For $7,500 the Commandos can be replaced with Special Forces.

Trivia[]

  • The Defense HQ is based on the Pentagon, the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense; with the notable difference of the Defense HQ having 6 sides instead of 5, making it a hexagon. This is acknowledged in the building description.
  • In the whole game, you can only get 5 Commando squads: One from the Palace, one from here, and three Allied Commandos (which you get from an Alliance with the US.)
