catkuba 0 Posted December 26, 2003 The Argies used 40mm Bofors guns to defend the airfield at Goose Green.... Noup! "ARgies" dont use this AA System Guns. In the battle by the defense of the airfield in "Goose Green" they were used  "Oerlikon-Contraves twin 35mm AA Guns"   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJN 0 Posted December 26, 2003 I was under the impression they used both. This is from a New Zealand perspective however as well. So no bias here men. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbfasi 4 Posted December 26, 2003 I believe Catkuba maye be right in this case. I have information that indicates the Argentian Forces used both Orelikon twin 35mm GDF-001 (the one mentioned above) and Rheinmetall Twin 20mm There may well of been 40mm bofors but these are not mentioned in my late 1982 source. I can definately confirm the Naval Version was in use on Several ships of the British Task Force. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can definately confirm the Naval Version was in use on Several ships of the British Task Force. Certainly CBFASI, the Rheinmetall Twin 20mm was used by the air defense of the Argentina Air Force. The AA of Army use before named Oerlikon-Contraves and the Anti-aircraft guns of 30 mm L 81.6 "hispanosuizos" Rheinmetall Twin 20mm Anti-aircraft guns of 30 mm L 81.6 "hispanosuizos" Oerlikon-Contraves twin 35mm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfasi 4 Posted January 25, 2004 I shall see if I can arrange a few pictures before too long for all to see. There will be 5 or 6 locations of varying sizes making most use of available space to have terrain at 1:1 This does mean a couple of 25k maps due to the distances involded in the maps (it was 7+ before the 12.8k limit was relaxed) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
