Episode twelve. This episode of Falklands Unwritten unpacks the key events of the 1982 Falklands War—Argentina’s invasion, Britain’s rapid naval response, and major turning points like the sinking of the Belgrano and HMS Sheffield. We examine Operation Black Buck, special forces raids, and the strategic role of Ascension Island. Then we dive into counterfactual scenarios: What if the UK had invaded mainland Argentina? Could NATO have been triggered? How might Soviet support or a Chile-Argentina conflict have changed the outcome? A detailed, timeline-driven exploration of both real and alternate history.
