It says quite clearly, a Chilean version of the Dutch Navy Karel Doorman, with British 4.5" main gun instead of the OTO 5" (or so it seems)

They say, the model could be compared to the Chilean M-frigates - Almirante (Amiral) Latorre. The ship is clearly like what Jan is saying a mix to LCF- Zeven Provincien class and a Sigma. Hull shape it quite like that from a LCF well the bridge is kinda like SIGMA. But I'm sure it's have almost the same sizes as the L -and M-frigates nowadays in service of the Chilean navy. But one thing we can say, it's Dutch.

It's clearly labeled, and looks like, a Mk 45, which is the standard USN artillery piece, 5/62 I believe
