It’s a good time to do it. Last time, the UK still had their Cold War military, now they have next to nothing, and most of their ‘next to nothing’ they already disposed of in Ukraine.

If I recall, Britain was barely able to bomb the airfields ahead of the arrival of the carriers with bombers that they were about to retire. They had to scrounge around for the aerial refueling equipment as the planes weren’t even doing that anymore. Now the UK has only 2 carriers in total and no long range bombers.

OTOH Argentina’s navy isn’t as strong as it once was either. Should be an interesting match up.
