With the Sea Lion oil field advancing, combined with the weakness of the Royal Navy now, wonder if Argentina is going to take another look at The Falklands?


The 'weakness' of the RN is far outweighed by the laughable state of the Argentinian armed forces. Plus, while smaller than it used to be I am not sure I would call a navy with F-35B-equipped carrier/s (they can only equip one at a time, but still...) and Tomahawk-armed subs 'weak'.

That brings up a good question: how capable are the Queen Elizabeth’s as it was implied earlier that without AEW, Growlers and AR, carriers were not effective. And considering the size difference between the QE’s (65,000 tons), America class ginormous LPH’s (40,000 tons) and Izumos (27,000 tons) are some useful without the aircraft that have to be catapulted?
