Currently there is a note (which is not adequate in Wikipedia standards) which reads: "Note from 2012: The Carabineros are no longer a part of the Chilean Armed Forces, but instead belong to the Ministerio del Interior." If the note is correct, the section must be removed from this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.39.188.173 ( talk) 01:20, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Chilean army is a fairly short article about the military hardware in chile. Such content would look more complete in this article (plus it stops loads of small articles) with this article having sub-headings for the armed forces rather than those large links --Errant Tmorton166( Talk)( Review me) 08:37, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
There is a lot of false and incomplete information about the chilean army. Please edit the information....
Aside from the other propaganda, if you take the link from the F-16 it says the plane is USAF. Why should it say Chilean?
And like someone else has said, there is a lot of false and missing information. 151.205.67.9 ( talk)
I don't think it is fair to claim this article is propaganda. The article has some holes in it but the subject at hand -the Chilean military- which is currently undergoing rapid reform, is a difficult subject to cover. There are a fair number of individuals from neighboring countries who are more than a bit upset at that nation's recent rapid progress and who probably feel eclipsed. Indeed if I am not mistaken the writer is an Argentinean, so characterizing the article as propagandistic is a bit unfair. I realize it is difficult to acquire photos of actual Chilean material, but posting photos of the same equipment in use by another nation like the U.S. is unprofessional. It would probably have been preferable to include photos of Netherlands stock. Also the inventory/acquisitions list is getting a little out of hand. It would be nice if a more streamlined format was used, remember the Chilean military is undergoing an overhaul and it will probably continue to acquire much more material. Maybe if a short overview was penned of what the goals are of these reforms (as is stated in the government website). For instance an update is needed to show that 120 Marder 1A3 vehicles are to be acquired - so what role is served by the 256 to 316 dedicated IFVs of the ejercito? How does this differ from the force's composition before reform? These are the questions I'd like to see answered. As i said before it is a difficult subject to follow and exact data isn't always there. All the best! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.148.155.126 ( talk) 06:27, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
In the sidebox, the manpower of the Chilean armed forces is quoted as 60,560. However, in the body of the article, it mentions a 60,000-person army, a 25,000-person navy and an 11,000 strong air force. I make that 96,000. I'm disinclined to change anything myself without up-to-date figures. I'd be surprised if the army, navy and air force figures were so exact. Has anybody got the right numbers?Agent0060 11:27, 26 September 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Agent0060 ( talk • contribs)
According to Chilean Army the Army contains 36,500 personnel organized into 6 divisions, an air brigade and a special ops brigade. Here it says the Army contains 80,000 personnel in 7 divisions and an air brigade. I assume 80,000 is for the entire armed forces and not the Army alone.

Is there a reason why this article is so short? This doesn't really describe the role of the armed forces in the Pacific War, Pinochet's dictatorship, or even the progressive coup during the interwar period. I know some of this could be delegated to a specific branch, but there's also the combined history (e.g. the effectiveness of the navy vs army in the Pacific War, occupation of Tacna, the strafing of the capital by the air forces combined with the arrests by the military).
I think it's important to understand this, because the social impact of the armed forces in Chile is heavily shaped by its historical legacy.-- 173.165.56.241 ( talk) 15:50, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
The manpower section of the article states that there’s only 80,000 active military troops, but this number doesn’t take into account the Navy or the Air force. Is this intentional or a mistake that should be fixed? Josez gox ( talk) 11:33, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
