HMS Invincible during the Falklands War 1982

HMS Invincible, Pictures from the Falklands War and its safe return.

In Argentina it is claimed that on 30 May HMS Invincible was successfully attacked and hit by an Exocet missile and 2 A4 skyhawks each with 3 bombs.

Clearly this is Argentine propaganda that has been persisted as the attack actually missed HMS Invincible.

In Argentina this fantasy still exists today despite all the evidence to the contrary.

@maximiliano181 The truth is Argentines believe only what they want to believe and they want to believe that HMS Invincible was hit when all the evidence is that she wasn't. How do you explain that it returned undamaged and on its return voyage was photographed by the US Navy are they part of the conspiracy as well ?

Just get over it, you have been lied to by your country so many times and this is another lie you want to believe.

@AKADevious Then a new Invincible class carrier had to be built, in total secrecy to make up the lost ship as only three were built, not a single ship builder let it slip that another ship was built . Or do you think that we had two and pretended we had three? so that every now and then one had to hide and all the crew pretend she was a different ship? Think about it seriously. How many Argentine Pilots claim to have seen the ship sunk? how many British people have seen the ship since 1982?

@maximiliano181 Invincible returned within the year, she was retained on station until she was relieved by HMS Illustrius.

Unfortunatley this doesn't seem to fit your conspiricy theory, you keep on believing the lies you have been fed apparently propagana works!!!!!

@maximiliano181 Was it a just cause? Or was it a Dictator trying to gain favour from his people, by doing something popular?

Invincible never sank, alot of sailors would have died and those that didn't would talk. You have been indoctrinated!

sus argumentos parecen sacados de una película de rambo... lamentables ..tristes y nada realistas... por cierto me podes explicar como fue que el invencible estuvo 2 años casi desaparecido?..yo te cuento por que.. la verdad es que no podían admitir al mundo que fueron golpeados duramente por un pequeño país dispuesto a morir por una causa justa

[maximiliano181]

la agregación verbal demuestra su clara ignorancia.. al no tener fundamentos agrede... es en verdad lamentable tanto su lenguaje como sus argumentos

BURN IN HELL INVINCIBLE

@geohol1 And how many pilots in conflict have misidentified a target!!!!

[DDave1975]

@maximiliano181 In fairness I meant people like yourself who insist on peddaling 30 year old propaganda started by a failing administration who did more harm to the Argentinian people that the British ever could.
