The British government's preliminary report declared that most of the weapons and equipment deployed had proved satisfactory. But the conclusions to be drawn may not be as simple as this. RAF Harriers and the Sidewinder air-to-air missiles were successful but the Royal Navy's ships were, arguably, inadequately armed to counter low-level air attacks and the lack of an airborne warning and control system proved a handicap. On the Argentinian side their Exocet missiles sank two British ships but old-fashioned bombs dropped by unsophisticated aircraft destroyed four more. This analyses the results achieved by these and other weapons used during the Falklands War. Covers ships, aircraft, missiles and other weapons used during the battle and tells how they were employed, and assesses the various lessons arising from the conflict.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVery Good\u003c\/strong\u003e condition but with foxing on endpapers and all page edges.
