They're all British you mexican retard.

The thing that made Britain great in the first place was a policy of laissez faire capitalism. After WW2 the government got hard on loisences and almost bankrupted itself trying to grow peanuts in rhodesia.

Hong Kong island was ceded to Britain after the first opium war, and Kowloon peninsula was ceded to Britain after the second opium war.
The 100 year lease was only for the New Territories, those being the countryside to the north and the other outlying islands.

You mean the penguins?

lol argie in denial
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origins_of_Falkland_Islanders

Mostly for flying out transports, and Pucara attack planes. They withdrew the interceptors they had back to the mainland after the Black Buck raids. Argie air attacks on the task force and landing came from the mainland.

They're just a very low-tech and cheap means for getting modern planes off the decks of generally smaller aircraft carriers. They put more stress on aircraft and limit the amount of fuel and bombs they can carry compared to a catapult. The US and France operate catapults I believe. Russia, UK, China, etc all use ramps but China will probably ditch them for catapults with all future carriers. I was expecting the new British carriers to not use ramps but they disappointed me.

Oh fuck looks like I was wrong

Can't wait for anglos to cuck themselves into anarchy so argies can rape the falklands to death while the UK becomes a califate.

LAS MALVINAS SON ARGENTINAS

Nobody lived there before the British, not long-term and not recently at least. One of the few times it was literally just free real estate nobody was occupying.

They aren't bad. Countries that use them are using STOL aircraft. Harriers can take off with heavier loads using less fuel if they roll forward and off the ramp. Retarded yank marines do VTOL off a flat deck, because they are retarded.

>be britain
>win wwii

JUST

It's a way of launching aircraft from a shorter flight deck with a much better payload than with no ramp at all. It's also a cheaper/simpler system, but can't match the performance of a proper catapult launch.

It's bad because people like to shit on anything that isn't proper CATOBAR.

When you've given up literally everything, a quarter of the Earth's surface or whatever, very little fight for 99% of it, you might get desperate at a point to stop once you realize you have a problem.

The French are doing the resurgent empire thing better, they can actually lead military interventions in some African shithole like America.

Considering the current state of France, I doubt the Africans even realise the soldiers are foreign.

That wasn't bait. That was bad punctuation and grammar.

they purposefully fly low to avoid anti air. pretty badass, many of the bombs dropped didn't have enough time to arm in air and just stuck into the deck of the ship, which actually turned out to be more effective at fucking shit up than a detonation would have been

>that's why britain is such a shithole today
no thats because of empire guilt. we effectively ran the world for decades, other countries could start things or influence them but everyone had to consider what we thought about the situation if it was big enough. After WW2 and the empire was dismantled, the idea that we did something wrong by being a global empire started to appear and then the narrative that the british empire was entirely bad exploded. we flooded ourselves with the postwar immigration and then in the 80's and 90's the idea of britain being a place for everyone really grew, that twinned with the idea that the government should be involved in everything created britain we know today. filled with people who dont speak english and dont hold british values while the goverment bans anything that might cause any harm. i hate my country

Imagine losing so many ships to a third world country. The absolute state of bongs.

And they would've lost more if those missiles the frogs sold to the argies actually worked, not to mention the fucking torpedoes that got all serviced the wrong way.

you realize they were destroy by exocet missiles right? argies had a lot but many stopped working so its lucky they didnt lose anymore.

iirc they needed a code or something to be activated and the French government refused to cooperate.

The history of the handover is kind of interesting. Some historians refer to the meeting between Thatcher and Deng Xiao Ping as “The Iron Lady meeting the Iron Man”.

While the terms of the lease laid out the conditions of the handover, the Portuguese handover of Macau set the precedent of all or nothing. Thatcher tried to talk her way around the issue but Deng called her bluff and said to the effect “Either you handover Hong Kong or we walk right in and take it.” Resulting in the 1997 handover which gives Hong Kong a certain level of autonomy until 2047. The British were never in a position to protect Hong Kong, Kowloon or Lantau Island and all China had to do was embargo the city and cut it off from the rest of the world.

WW2 showed that the British never could defend Hong Kong.

I think they were working fine until the last maintenance where the argies think a bunch of the missiles got sabotaged by the exocet technicians.
The french govt simply blocked more sales when the argies tried to buy them through proxies like Peru.

>no ww3 in 80's/90's against china

Imagine sailing thousands of miles with less troops than your opponent and still beating the living fuck out of him on his literal doorstep, to such a degree that your opponent is still assmad about it over 3 decades later.

What's the story behind this pic?

A Top Gear special in Argentina. The Argies got assmad about the license plate of the car having 82 and FKL in them and chimped out.

The British ground to air systems (Sea Cat / Sea Wolf) was too retarded to lock on to low flying targets. Also if there were two planes in its view finder, it couldn't differentiate the two and it could not lock. If the Argies zerg rushed more ships they could have won.

>top gear to go argentina for one of their trip/challenges
>said licenseplate on car
>argies see it, get upset

A top gear episode where they went to South America, including Argentina, and at the end they got forced to flee the town they were staying in because hundreds strong mobs of assmad argies were hurling rocks and shit at their cars and trying to fuck them up.

The licence plate caused controversy because obviously, the Falklands war was in 1982 and FKL could easily be shorthand for Falklands.

Where's the aircraft carriers?

Based af.

Absolute mongo take. Holding the Falklands is a ballache and one the UK would rather do without, but because the Argentines were too retarded to follow sensible diplomatic routes - like maybe trying to win over the Falklanders with guarantees of investment, hugely expanded economy, and automony/local laws and language maintained - we're fucking stuck with them.

Fucking legends, at the end of the day it was the first and last war for the FAA, and one can only dream about having such strong convictions about yourself and your country.
I went to Malvinas back in 09' after signing a shit ton of papers, visited the graveyard and had a mesmerizing conversation with a local, well thought on argentinian history, that made me realize that we are not so different at core, family, beer, football and rock music. Back in the day it would be 'clean water, a roof and a handful of pennies' as he told me.
I got 'called' almost every day by the locals, some nasty shit, until some of them actually approached and heard about my dad dying in that godforsaken land, frozen to death in a fox hole.
I wouldn't go back, I can't even watch films about it, we had 'major' film releases about that war, but I can't put myself together to watch it.

They also assumed that Britain either couldn't or wouldn't bother to respond because the islands were the other side of the world and (at the time) had no known valuable resources to bother keeping them.
Of course they were completely wrong, their poorly trained teenage conscripts got thrashed, their WW2 battleship got turned into a submarine and the junta fell even quicker.

If the Argies had waited a few months then HMS Invincible (one of 2 aircraft carriers deployed in the war) would have been sold to the Aussies and it would be nearly impossible for a UK naval task force to retake the islands
