FUTURE WARS: THE FALKLANDS WAR PART 2

After winning the Falklands War against Argentina in the early 80's, Britain has made sure to beef up defenses on and around the disputed Falkland Islands. The English have deployed the 4.5 generation Eurofighter jets, and the Type 45 air defense destroyer to the area. Argentina has not given up claims to the territory, but its military --due to lack of funding-- has not been in a position to offer a credible threat. That may be chang...ing. Argentina is now in talks with China for the JF-17/FC-1 fighter. While it's not on par with the Eurofighter, it would give Argentina advanced anti-ship capability, precision guided attack capability, and beyond visual range combat capability. Chinese missiles would also probably be part of any deal. Stay tuned!
