by 2025 the UK power projection capabilities for this sort of situation will probably be at the highest level in decades.
:this:
Typhoon, F35, Astute class, Type 45, QE carrier/s.
Unless France decides to retire and sell the Charles De Gaulle and her Rafales to Argentina as an austerity measure, I fail to see how they can pose a serious threat to a British task force.
I think it would be possible to take the islands though IF they managed to put a force together before the Queen Elizabeth comes into service, but holding them would be next to impossible. A British submarine could easily destroy the islands only airfield, and once a type 45 arrives its game over for airdrops.
