Summary

[edit]
Description

This is an Argentine Pucara ground-attack and counter-insurgency (COIN) aircraft. It was based in the Falkland Islands after their forces invaded the islands in 1982.

After the "unpleasantness" (war) between Argentina and the United Kingdom completed in June of that year the islands reverted to British control.

Two Pucaras remained at Stanley Airport and they were taken to the UK for evaluation.

I saw this one at the Fleet Air Arm museum at Yeovleton a couple of years later.
