This book provides an in-depth analysis of Argentina's use of tactical aircraft during the Falklands War in 1982. It explores the political and military context leading up to the conflict, focusing on the Argentinean Air Force and Navy's strategies and challenges in countering the superior British forces. Despite having numerical superiority, the Argentinean forces faced significant disadvantages due to inadequate preparation in planning, intelligence, and resources. The book examines the reorganization efforts of the Argentinean Air Force, the innovative tactics employed by its pilots, and the impact of newly acquired Exocet missiles. It also evaluates the outcomes of aerial engagements and the broader implications of the conflict. The intended audience includes military historians, aviation enthusiasts, and those interested in the dynamics of international conflict. |
