    Aden was pants, slow muzzle velocity and silly mounting. Quite how Sharkey et al did as well as they did, is truly legendary.

    I was on a ship in San Carlos on D-Day, 21st May and it was certainly an interesting, exciting sad and in places funny day. Argentine planes came in low and fast over the headlands into a crucible of fire from the all our ships, including ship's missiles and shoulder launched Blowpipe missiles, along with dozens of machine and small arms fire. Ships were hit and some planes blown out of the sky, and all credit to the Argentine pilots who made it home and then came back again to face that. I suppose because of the outgoing fire the Sea Harrier CAP was elsewhere trying to intercept or engage on the way home. Great video though and one i shall reenact myself on DCS.

    The real deal just showed how well trained our RAF pilots were at the time and given the right tools are devastating. So much in real life we scared the absolute shit out the other side they refused to fly again after a certain point. The Sidewinder missile was key it was ahead of the time, accurate and gave an edge. The RAF improvised, adapted and became relentless but not after going in too overconfident and cocky at the beginning before a few wake up calls they basically got told your RAF pilots like all before you and what that stands for - now behave like it. They stopped taking silly risks and underestimating the enemy skill of the pilots on the other side and hardened up and became the ruthless professionals we all knew they were.
