Lol.

I suspect, these days it would be more likely to be allied task forces working together, a bit like the British Pacific Fleet (Task Force 57) off Japan in 1945 working alongside the USN.

Also in response to someone asking about a single squadron of F-35B, the new Royal Navy carriers will have 24 F-35B (ie two squadron's) routinely embarked, and around 36 (ie, 3 squadrons) in a actual conflict situation. The ships are said to have a capacity of over 40 aircraft including helicopters, although I would be surprised, given their size if it was not closer to 50 if push came to shove.

UK took 20 Sea Harriers to the Falkland's, later reinforced by six more Sea Harriers and six RAF GR3 Harriers.

I seem to recall the Sea Harriers and the GR3's had nine kills. Is that right?

I believe it was 20+ with no loss! (a couple were lost to ground fire)

Wow. That's nice shooting. Almost like flushing quail out of the Texas bush, once the birds are airborne, bam.
