Belizean War

i was wondering what if sometime in the sixties Guatemalabegan a military build up with the goal of annexing Belize ? Then in 1975 launched an attack on Belize trying to forcibly annex it from the UK. In the event of this wouuld there be a Falkland type conflict & if sowhat events would take place?

Try Phoenix Squadron by Rowland White. Guatemala threatened
British Honduras in '72, and the British sent the Ark Royal. IIRC, an overflight by a couple of Buccaneers was enough to have them back down.
 
Considering the disparity between the two combattants the war would be fairly short. The Guatemalans, for example, don't really have anything to stop the FAA and RAF going where they want and bombing what they want.
