May 25th, 1982, Argentina's Revolution Day and the 53rd day of the Falklands War... or for Argentina the fight for the Malvinas.
Four Argentinian A-4B Skyhawk bombers moved on the British ships that patrolled to the North West. The Royal Navy radar picket had already caused the loss of several Argentinian planes. Now the pilots had the task of bombing Royal Navy ships specifically designed to shoot planes down.
The Argentinians had no radar warning, no chaff, just outdated planes, unguided bombs and sheer determination.
The British ships also were in a precarious position - three days of daily patrols without a rest, away from any support besides occasional fighter combat patrols. The Loss of HMS Coventry was a disaster for the British but did not change the course of the war.
