Could Britain fight the Falklands War again today? Getting an aircraft carrier to the South Atlantic is one problem. Getting troops ashore and keeping them supplied is another.
In this video, I walk through a hypothetical second Falklands conflict, from Argentina’s ability to overcome the islands’ defenses to Britain’s ability to assemble a task force and take them back.
We’ll look at submarines, F-35Bs, escorts, troop transports, and the logistics behind the ships you see on television. I also examine NATO’s geographic limits and how an uncertain American response could complicate British planning.
But before asking whether Britain could retake the Falklands, we need to ask whether Argentina could capture and hold them in the first place.
This is a hypothetical military analysis, not a report of an invasion.
