How would a strike of 7-8 A4Bs go against the British task force of 20 Sea Harriers on 2 carriers defended by at least 10 escorts including 3 Type 42s and 2 Type 22s? Keep in mind that the British knew the Arg carrier was at sea, they'd detected the ARA's T42 radars.
I'd imagine it would come down to the reactions on both sides, it would be the first carrier battle since WW2, and am I right in thinking would be the first attack on the task force. I guess the RN would win but might suffer some escort losses or Harrier losses possible.
Could/Would the task force counterstrike or would it need to use the SSN's to attack?
I imagine that a carrier battle would certainly change the post war views of the RN even more than the Falklands did in OTL.
