Only thing a type 42 intercepted really was the exocet with sea dart which is no longer used viper has replaced it.

the RN lacks numbers to confront the Russians head on alone which is why we always work in coalition these days we are dependant on the USA and NATO allies for support

Right now if Argentina kicks off in the falklands we would require USA help to regain the islands we could not do it alone.
