INFORMATION:

One of the many new training rooms.


History: although the Argentinian Mirage jets were considered superior, the Sea Harriers more than held their own as the first line British defence against the Mirage's devastating Exocet anti-ship missiles. The Harriers' greater agility, coupled with the latest American-built Sidewinder missile made for a lethal combination and Argentinian fighters failed to shoot down a single Sea Harrier during the conflict.
