Wasn’t HMS Hermes sunk off Ceylon in April 1942 when the IJN came into the Indian Ocean. Around the same time Cornwall and Dorsetshire were sunk.

Do try to keep up old boy! Blowpipe was dropped in 85, there's a new generation missile. Starstreak, Rapier FSC plus the AA combat load on a single Typhoon all on the Falklands. Add the Hunter Killer sub that's there no doubt and a type 54 Destroyer and it's game over for Agentina.

Not convinced?

After 82 the British put in place a rapid reaction force specifically to reinforce the Falklands, it runs via the Ascension Islands. Reaction time is 18 hrs, and yup the Ascension's are British and commanded by a British Officer, we wouldn't want to use an American base because your leaders can't be trusted.

So it was. But the Hermes wasn't posted to the Eastern Fleet and Ceylon until February, 1942 -- three months after the Japanese initiated their attacks against the British Empire.

The Russians are just waiting for the Olympics to be over. Now that they are, lets see what will happen.

Maybe they’re going to invade Venezuela. Everybody and their parrot seems lined up to do so at some point in the future. More seriously, if I were Argentina, I’d be quite worried about the “far in the continent” possible buildup.

Another fascist bridge to nowhere. Gaining the Falkland will gain them nothing other than becoming another Chinese like bully.

10-15 cruise missiles at the heart of the power grid for B. A. could create enough domestic turmoil to forestall any action against the Faulklands.

Argentina’s citizens should take to the street and demand freedom. Argentina’s president and the pols are ruining the country.

A little ethnic cleansing (Stalin) goes a long way.
