The only narrative account that I am aware of is in Tony Blackman's book "Nimrod - Rise and Fall" pp 87-89. The reference does quote a Parliamentary Question and response so there may be further information available via the House of Commons library. The National Archiive (TNA) will hold the squadron Operational Record Books for the period, but as the events referred to are less than 30 years ago they may not have released yet. An enquiry to TNA will quickly reveal the situation although you may find that they contain little other than dates of deployment. They may however show the operation names and a further TNA search might turn up more information. However as this would have been a multi-agency operation it is possible that it would not have been subject to automatic review. There may of course be information already available from US sources that could be cross referenced.

I hope that you find this helpful.
