Flankers in the Falklands

[Hammer]

Imagine the British press' response to regular Argie Flanker "around the Falklands" long range fighter patrols? Sort of like the Russinas do with their Tu-95s...

Imagine the hairs graying rapidly on RAF senior staff heads as they discover through the press that the Argentinean just bought 48 brand new Su-35 from Sukhoi...

LOL.

Aye, and imagine a Special Forces brick shoving a Claymore in each engine intake whilst they are parked on some safe little runway.

"dream on"

not like there will be a round 2 anyway, Argentina is in no place to mount an offensive and until we get ourselves out of our current endevours and finish some procurment programs we are in no position to retake them as in '82.
In 10 or 15 years with 2 fleet carriers, 80 or so JSF's, capable AD Destroyers and LHD's, a fleet of AH-64's etc perhaps

Ahh....I think I know where your member name came from !

And Chinooks, more Merlins, pack up a few of them S-92 from the Coast Guard ( the -61s are keep in reserve for just such a scenerio, lotsa flight sim time for the reservists ) and ship 'em down there.
etc.
