  1. MOVIES about this conflict

    I know there is another film about it, I'll pop down to the video store and find out what it is.
  2. Favorite Falkand's War Aircraft

    Sorry. Sorry I even asked mate, wasn't thinking at the time!
  3. Interesting and Challenging Terrain

    It would be hilarious to suddenly fly inside the tunnel as the Harrier and sit inside, making the enemy wonder "Where is the bugger?"
  4. Vulcan Missions could be a bit boring

    And that one bomb made the Argentines think twice! Good Stuff.
  5. Favorite Falkand's War Aircraft

    Interesting, but no Harrier losses though in A2A combat though. Well, on that note, I'm going to stop, but others probably won't. What was his name?

I've never heard of any Argentine claims to any air-to-air kills, until today, and I've searched everywhere. Unless you've got some links and leads to back those claims up, then I can probably safely say they never happened and was just Argentine propaganda, some of the many that was floating around at the time. It's like the 1982 Lebanon conflict, Israeli pilots claimed 87 without loss in air to air combat, however, the Syrians and Soviets claimed 21 kills with 67 IAF F-15's and F-16's downed. But we all know the Israelis didn't lose anything in air-to-air combat. Cheers,
