Sailors look on as the first Peruvian navy submarine BAP Arica moors to a pier at Naval Submarine Base Point Loma. Arica is the first Peruvian submarine to pull into San Diego bay and is participating in a three-month multinational, anti-submarine warfare exercise called Diesel Electric Submarine Initiative. The DESI Program is a U.S. Navy partnership with South American countries and supports their diesel-electric submarine operations and fleet readiness events in operating areas off the U.S. east and west coasts. Participating DESI partners include Colombia, Peru, Chile and Brazil.
