  • The WE.177A nuclear depth charges were taken aboard aircraft carrier HMS Invincible (inset), from which the Prince (main image) flew sorties as a Sea King helicopter co-pilot with 820 Naval Air Squadron. The Nuclear Information Service report estimates that there were ten warheads aboard Invincible, 16 on the second British carrier, HMS Hermes, and more aboard support ships in the task force dispatched by Margaret Thatcher in 1982. According to the report, the Royal Navy should have removed the ordnance from the warships before the fleet sailed to the South Atlantic, but the task was not performed since offloading the weapons would have given the Argentinians more time to dig in.

      The brave Argentinian pilots sank 7 Britshit pirate ships and badly wrecked more than 20 ships including HMS Invincible, The Britshit never had Legal rights to the Island Malvinas Argentine which they invaded in 1833 and expelled the Argentinian Legal Authorities, the British won the war Thanks to the help of the US, winning a war does not give rights.

    Este tema sobre el ataque al portaaviones HMS Invencible se hizo muy popular en las redes, por las cientos de entrevistas, documentales, disertaciones de los pilotos argentinos que vienen asegurando desde hace 40 años que le pegaron al portaaviones británico, algunas redes tienen hasta un millón de visitas, he visto que lo tratan uruguayos, peruanos, españoles, entre otros. Esas publicaciones atrajo a muchos británicos y lacayos de Gran Bretaña que aparecen solo para negar un ataque que nunca vieron, algunos aparecen con el cuento de que tienen un tío, otro un amigo, otro un abuelo que les dijeron que no fue atacado y bla, bla, bla, traen fuente que no prueban nada. No existe un documental británico, ni entrevistas donde los tripulantes del portaaviones HMS Invencible hayan relatado su experiencia en la guerra y negando el ataque de los pilotos argentinos, es la pieza fundamental del rompecabezas que falta para completar esta parte de la historia. Si la tripulación del portaaviones hace 40 años que están mudos, ni siquiera dan entrevistas, es porque algo malo les sucedieron a bordo aquel día del 30 de mayo de 1982.
