I would take the range numbers with a grain of salt. Range is sometimes determined as effective range vs certain types of targets. Air to air missiles can travel 200 miles and take out a slow moving cargo plane, but the range to take out a fast jet would be significantly less as the missile loses energy the further it travels - even ramjet after a certain point

Argentina is in no shape to pick a fight with the UK in the 21st century so far. I understand and totally agree, keep the Falklands very-well defended. I merely doubt Argentina could currently pick any fight with the UK. That would be giving Argentina way, way too much credit really. While an awful lot of stirred up, frankly silly anti-British political rhetoric and tall talk comes out of Argentina from time to time (usually because some random Argentinian politician wants to bank some easy brownie points with their electorate, feeding off pre-existing anglophobia, like French politicians insultingly regularly do for attention), if you just glance at _the absolute state_ of the Argentine military capability of late, you'll see how woefully incapable they are. Bluster aside, Argentina might even be in worse shape in 2022 for any kind of purely hypothetical scenario of conflict/war with the UK, _than they were in 1982_ and it probably is true to say. Argentina has had old ships _sink at anchor_ in their ports, for a start. Tragically on a humanitarian level, they lost an old 80's vintage, pre-Fall of the Berlin Wall era German diesel-electric submarine, with all hands, in recent years as well. No disrespect that is an appalling fate. Britain offered and gave assistance - even though there were some elements within Argentine society and even government, rudely telling the British to leave. Delusional behaviour from some old anglophobes in Argentina. The fact the UK rendered genuine aid to Argentina, as did others like the USA, says it all. Britain is the class act and actual adult in the room. At least the UK helped in the oceanographic search efforts. The Argentine Navy and Air Force operate largely antiquated units/vehicles. I know it is good to get ahead of the curve and anticipate any developments, improvements or changes on their end, though putting it generously they are outmatched. Putting it harshly, they would be barking up the wrong tree to dare cause trouble. And for what? Who would they be trying to kid? They are not even able to justify it on any level, no matter what anyone tries to claim. 99.8% or something like that on the Falklands voted to be UK citizens (and the few - literally a few people - that voted the other way, might have done so by accident or for a joke for all anyone knows) Or maybe a few genuinely do want to see the Argentines take over. Doubt it. It should be 100% pro-British, and from what I can tell, mostly is. Again, probably some troll ballots/voting cards in there for the lols (or maybe some need specsavers) The people of those islands have clearly spoken. It is a self-determination matter.
