I never even thought of such a thing as a “Mexican Navy”. The next thing I suppose is; you’ll be telling me they also have a Mexican Air Force.
Meanwhile, the USN is involved in an ongoing fiasco trying to fill this niche with the Littoral Combat Ship.
In 2000 I was scuba diving in Cozumel when a body came up next to the boat. It was a dead diver who had been in the water for some weeks. Our boat captain called the Mexican Coast Guard station only a few miles away and was told that they wouldn’t come out because it was Sunday afternoon and they were off.
Yes, they do.
The Mexican Army has become so corrupted by the narco that the Mexican government (what’s left of it) uses the Navy to fight their drug wars. This boat will be doing only that.
A Mexican Air Force P-47 Squadron, under US operational command, performed very well in the Philippines in 1945.
