Harrier GR7's don't have radar - much has changed. Subs are useless against
aircraft - much has changed. The Argentine A-4R's have radar similar to the
F-16 - much has changed.

Something else which has changed is that the UK has significantly
stronger military forces on the islands than in 1982, as well as
the ability to re-inforce them relatively easily.

And Argentina is no longer run by a junta which specialised in
'disappearing' its own population.

These must count for something.
