A long time ago but here goes.
Tigercat: Useless unless you were in a desert airfield being attacked by WW1 bi-planes.
The Argentines had an assortmentof 20mm, 30mm and 35mm AA artillery, the latter being the most effective. I believe the Crabs actually used it to defend a RAF station after (Waddington?)
The 20mm was a visually laid weapon and the navy used some of the captured weapons from Goose Green and put them on LSLs after. They were then discarded.
The Roland had it own radar and fire control and was independent of the gun systems. The Roland was evaluated after the war and considered too bulky and cumbersome to be of little value apart from pre-prepared static defence.
Nick Taylor was hit by a 35mm.
