Thank you Marcantilan, fascinating. So we can say that fighters already tasked with DCA of the homeland were kept in that role with Black Buck being added to the list of reasons for doing so?
However Black Buck doesn't seem to be the reason for not forward deploying fast air to Stanley. (After all, if Stanley could operate QRA and the radar functioned that well you'd have put fighters there to intercept the raids - I assume?)
Thanks for your reply.
Orca.
