Falklands Change

From Explore GB’s Facebook Post:



Argentina couldn’t retake the Falklands today if it tried.

Zero active subs, an aging fleet, and zero air-refueling capability to get their newly acquired F-16s to the islands and back.

Meanwhile, Britain has 1,500 troops, Sky Sabre air defence, and 4 Typhoons on Quick Reaction Alert at Mount Pleasant.

It’s not 1982 anymore, the UK built an unsinkable fortress, and Argentina lacks the power projection to even approach it.

Despite suggesting the US might withhold support, the UK requires zero American assistance to defend the Falkland Islands
