We have 2 active carriers one is mothballed which means we can re activate invincible and that gives us one more carrier than in the first war, ocean could if they moved the goal keeper over possibly also carry harriers.
we have a large RFA with landing ships not to mention should war break out we have the QE2 and QM2 still and many other british flagged ships that we can use, the argentines are more scared of our nuclear submarines we have 7 trafalgars 2 swiftsures and 1 astute
we have enough DDG's to make one battle group which is enough and the type 23's which are a bit better than the type 22's we still got 4 of them as well and the ones mothballed, the FA2 is mothballed they would probably re activate them, they could send typhoons and tornadoes to the asension islands with a few tankers and then you got air denfence the type 45 would probably be there as well.
i still rekon we have a fairly good chance of winning down there even in the state we are in now.
