I'm liking this! Brave warriors on that day in Falkland Sound. I remember it on the news as a teenager.

I see that this kit likes the putty but your efforts on it created very nice model. My congratulation!

Looks great! I also watched this conflict unfold as a teenager and was fascinated by the A-4 attacks on the RN. I have this kit in my stash and hope to build it soon.

Thank you guys! Still pending some work. @Andy and Rui, I have modified the bomb configuration thus it is the same of the Ardent's attack. Also other minor touches that are wrong or lack the Argentinean version in the kit. Overall the kit is very good. Decals are excellent. Regarding the conflict I watched some videos and read several books that said(among other things) that was the last war fought by gentlemen from both sides. Cheers

Great comment @Micky. As a 10 year veteran I like to think that as a warfighter I went about my job with respect for my enemy.

Read the books on the Falklands and Sharky Ward was very complimentary about the Argentinian pilots.I watched every news cast about it as an eighteen year old.

Looks really cool! 👍🏻 I also finished another plane on the Falklands War theme. I also have A-E on my shelf, but in 1:144 scale 🙂
