Hi
I can recognize a lot of those ships as ex UK Royal Navy vessels, good to see they are still providing good service even if they have recieved major modifications.
I see also a Newport class amphibious assault vehicle , i was wondering how the marine scorpion you made got to sea .

Hi Peter,
Most of our ships has been previously on british service or has been built in Britain...the Chilean Navy has a long cooperation and friednship tradition with the White Ensign, Falklands included
About the Newport Class LST, the Scorpions and other vehicles are unloaded directly on the beach, therefore the amphibious capabilities of those vehicles are no longer needed....hope we get some AMTRACKS soon
All the best
