Huáscar is an ironclad turret ship owned by the Chilean Navy built in 1865 for the Peruvian government. It is named after the 16th-century Inca emperor, Huáscar. She was the flagship of the Peruvian Navy and participated in the Battle of Pacocha and the War of the Pacific of 1879–1883. At the Battle of Angamos, Huáscar, captained by renowned Peruvian naval officer Miguel Grau Seminario, was captured by the Chilean fleet and commissioned into the Chilean Navy.

Today Huáscar is one of the few surviving ships of her type. She has been restored and is a memorial ship anchored in Talcahuano, Chile. Huáscar is the second oldest armored warship afloat after Warrior, and the oldest monitor afloat.

    @worldwaraviations015 I was thinking about making a ship of the line, but the number of cannons would affect the number of pieces. But maybe I'll do it.

    Will you ever build the Nuestra Señora De La Santisima Trinidad as your "Big Project" ?
