Hello everyone!
There's much controversy around what happened that 30 may 1982 during the Falkland War.
Some say the Invincible was not attacked, that it was attacked but not damaged, attacked and damaged, while others go as far as to claim it was ultimately sunk.
The thing is that there is supporting evidence to at least doubt in some way the official british version.
For example, after the war all the Task Force returned to port but the Invincible, which remained at sea for two more months (?). It wasn't seen until august when it docked in the Falklands. It later returned to Portsmouth in mid September but (here another particularity) it looked brand new, instead of battle wary, like HMS Hermes looked upon returning (though it supposedly wasn't damaged during the conflict)
There are a number of theories supporting each point of view, however I'd like to know what do you people think about this matter.
I'll provide links shortly.
Thanks |
