France training against Mirages for Harriers Pilots
France not giving 9 exocets and 9 Super Etendarts, that was payed.
Yes, withuot NATO Allied, UK can´t reusurpe Flaklands/Malvinas
Ascension isn't American you muppet. It is a UK dependancy. As for the Sidewinders, I'll think you'll find we were charged for them, as with every other weapons procurement.
The training is a given also, do you honestly expect NATO NOT to train with each other?
I'll think you'll find us training with the Yanks, Germans and French (as well as every other NATO ally) well before your little escapade in '82.

55 Heros shoots his own fanatasy down in flames
remember the picuture of R05 Invincible (no Phalanx) being relieved by R06 Illustrious (with phalanx) on 27th August 1982.
You first claimed it was publicity shoot from 1985, then after I told you of post-falkland re-fit you said the picture was from 1983 then Deccember 1982.
Well now you have proved that this photo can only have been taken on 27/28th August 1982 and Invincible never sank
As before that date Invincible and Illustrious had never been at sea together and Illustrious had her phalanx hastily fitted in May/June whilst Invincible was in the Falklands.
She then sailed with Phalanx on 2nd August (once Hermes harriers had re-formed into 820 squadron and embarked)
She relieved Invincible on 27th and Invinccible then left on 28th for Portsmouth and her phalanx refit, which began the day after she came home. Invincible finished re-fit in Feb 83
Illustrious stayd on station unitl November 82 then return to dock to finish final fitting she was re-commission back into the navy on 23rd Marcch 83.
Thus only after that date could the 2 carrier be photographed at sea and at that point they both had phalanx.
So thanks to 55heros for proving Invincible never sank

i want to ask either 55, theduck or Arkantos why do you all spell liar as lier?
ill tell you why because you are the same person, you have to make other characters up too try and give your arguments legitimacy when in reality your argument has no basis or facts. Not once have you ever put forward any facts or any conclusive prove, man you cant even write sentences which make any grammatical sense.
I want you to bring the pilots who supposedly sunk the Invincible onto this forum, so we can ask them why they havent told their stories to the world news. You claim to know them send me their email addresses so i can contact them, we all know you cannot because you properly only have posters of them on your bedroom walls along with your my little ponies
.
BTW i saw the Original Invincible as a drove home from work today and how lovely she looks

The New Invincible is waiting to be scrapped in Alang, India.
The aluminium is a high point of ignition metal
But a low point of fusion metal
Bad, horrible for warships
