I would have thought that the Falkland Islands are much, much better defended against air attack than they were in 1982?

A seaborne troop carrier is relatively slow moving and requires an air defence and anti-submarine escort with up to date detect and destroy capabilities. Does Argentina have this kind of equipment, is it state of the art?

I can't believe they would be stupid enough to try the military option again. Could be wrong!
