Argentina's present day military is a shadow of what it was in 1982 and I believe Britain keeps a few submarines lurking near the islands 24/7 just in case. The Argies would never even reach the Falklands.

The situation is different now. In 1982, choosing to defend the islands was a rather bold political decision. Now, people would expect it. And like I said, there is a permanent presence of Royal Navy boats there now. Those ships would respond automatically without needing explicit orders to do so.

theres a full airbase on the islands with eurofighter and anti air defences 24/7. There were no antiair defences in the invasion and those they set up wernt ready for the beach head.

Plus 1 type 45 can track and engage more than 5 old destroyers worth of air target. It could feasibly engage the entire argentian airforce on its own
>>
>>60043919
Corbyn is apparently in favour of handing the islands over to Argentina (or at least negotiating with them) so if Labour wins the next election (assuming Corbyn lasts that long as leader) then probably not

I think Cameron would probably bomb the invaders to bits but stop short of committing ground troops

Personally if it happened on my watch I'd turn Buenos Aires to glass

Believe me mate, this would be EXACTLY what the government needs right now, a major victory for the conservatives. They'd love the argentinians to invade the Falklands.

Militarily, there's a few subs and a Type 45 destroyer there with a permanent garrison of AA defences and Royal Marines. If, and that's a big if, they managed to take the islands the government would be fucking merciless with the force they sent to retake them. As I said, its a victory they need to boost their approval ratings.

We probably wouldn't need to send a taskforce like in 1982, one SSN would sink most of the Argentine plus whatever South American country that helped them navy. Retaliation would then be carried out with cruise missiles on their mainland.

If they did anything where control of the islands was jeopardised then we would probably use a low yield nuclear warhead as a show of force.

Hard to say. I guess it depends if Argentina really is white or not.

If they are white, Britain will defend it to the death.

If they aren't, Britain will apologize for enslaving the islands populations and destroying the rich native culture that existed there prior. They will then hand over the island and make a new holiday marking the event.

They are seriously clutching their pearls over the "civilian casualties" of airstrikes against ISIS, which seems to consist of about a dozen British planes. They will probably kill more goats than Syrians or even ISIS targets, though I suppose that would outrage some segments of British society even more.

I get the sense that if Britain were attacked directly, 30% of the populace would oppose retaliation on principle because "WAR IS NOT THE ANSWER." That's a shockingly high number.

Hawaii has several orders of magnitude more value than the Falklamds. It's really about national pride.

If not, Bolivia would love to have a blue water navy again.

We had 22 Royal Marines stationed on the Falklands in 1982 who managed to put up a fight inflicting casualties on the swarms of Argies before surrendering.

We now have well over 1000 personnel and a good array of hardware, Argies know they would start a full blown war if they attacked the Falklands, which would basically require carpet bombing the islands.

pretty much, the only people who wouldnt advocate a united Ireland are business interests with a vested interest in separation, the families of those who died in the conflict and the unionists who hate the English but hate Catholics more. We literally can't even given Northern Ireland away until the people vote - self determination just like the Falklands. It works both ways.

That being said N.Ireland has vital shipbuilding and aerospace factories and has some pretty switched on people so it would be a loss to the UK as a whole and a gain for the republic.

It's worth noting we beat the Argentinians single-handedly. No NATO, no americans, none of this coalition bullshit. It was a strong victory for us, because it proved that we could still go to war and actually win sometimes.

They made a gamble and lost. Part of the problem is that tons of other countries had done something similar and won. Falkands is a probably the only major overseas colonial-era land that wasn't re-annexed successfully by force.

We would probably want to respond the same way, but right now we dont even have the capacity to do so.

Our navy is not what it used to be in the 80s, it has been cut back every single year, both in personell and in ordnance / vehicles / vessels.

Only over the last 5 years have the government started constructing new carriers but they aren't operational yet.

The only carrier we have is shared with France.

I imagine another occupation by Argentina woudl last a lot, lot longer. The Falkanders would be evacuated and diplomatic discussions would go on for years to the point where they would basically be a ceremonial kind of thing, the government would pretend that they really want to get them back and continue giving stern speeches and sending harshly written letters to the Argentine embassy until the media loses interest and they can sweep it under the rug.


That said, the Argentine military is not what it used to be either, well actually, it is what it used to be, it is exactly what it used to be. The same ships. The same ordnance and for the most part, the same aircraft and weapons systems. They are a soviet era military.

Ive just bought this guys book which ill read tonight but i disagree I think its naive to say its pointless or a colonial outpost. Sure IT IS, but there are resources there, the democratic will of the people who live there, the strongest military base in the south Atlantic crucial to the west in any activities in the future resource wars over the Antarctic. Its also a great listening station and symbol of British power. It may not mean much to you or I and indeed might not be great reasons but they are reasons and they do matter in different degrees to different people.
