Electronic Engineering in the Chilean Navy

Valparaíso, Imprenta de la Armada, 2003.

“This book highlights the operational importance of this specialty, its contributions to civilian activities and its influence in the development of the defense industry in Chile, through novel projects stimulated by the circumstances experienced during the seventies. The small size of the domestic market and the few comparative advantages Chile has over other countries that allocate a significant percentage of their product to research and development, do not allow for a large expansion of this sector. However, there are specific areas of participation that have already been successful, and who can argue that in the future there will be no other areas where electronic naval engineers and electronic mechanics can venture with the same success of the past?”
