Quote from: Weaver on March 31, 2024, 06:50:09 AMYes. The hangar was lengthened and raised to take a Cougar (Puma). Before they got those Phalanx guns, they had Seacat in that position with the director on a platform where the INMARSAT dome is in your pic. Looks like they updated the gun's fire control from MRS3 to Type 912 (i.e. Selenia-Orion RTN-10X) at the same time they did the Phalanx.

Correction: the new fire-control system that replaced MRS.3 is an Israeli ELTA EL/M-2221GM according to Wikipedia. That makes sense since Chile uses Israeli Barak VLS SAMs on some of it's ships (they had them on the Counties they bought).

As an ongoing thread, this build is quite a nice idea.
