Comandante Aguirre: Tier VIII Premium Pan-American Peruvian Cruiser

The ship is named after the Peruvian national hero, Remigio Elías Aguirre Romero, the second-in-command of the legendary ironclad Huascar, who was killed in action during the naval battle of Angamos in October 1879. Since then, the name Comandante Aguirre was briefly borne by two Peruvian cruisers.
