Likely true and if like similar situations in both summer of 23 and 24 it will è the “sand in the eyes” part of an air campaign. I think stage one was the Saki attack and “damage “ to as many as 5 su-35/24s

Hmmmm it is curious, I am under the impression that the subsurface structure is configured differently than the visible structure to allow for tides and currents. Would the enhancement of a deep water charge efficacy be a factor?

Several raids on the Royal Navy amphibious landing force at San Carlos were conducted starting 21 May 1982 and we will take a deep dive into those that targeted HMS Argonaut including one flown by a young Argentine Naval Aviator in an Italian built jet trainer! Epic stuff.
