[1] I was planning to add but having problems with the tool to convert to a reference. Save for later or for any kind soul to do in the mean time. WCMemail10:54, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
But it doesn't mention Sheffield explicitly. Maybe better to put this with this reference into the main Falkland War article? --Ozzy (talk) 12:23, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I vaguely remember reading that one of the problems experienced by the Sheffield was that its missile-defense systems had been programmed to ignore friendly missiles, and the Exocet, being French, was seen as "friendly" (thanks to the expected response to a Soviet attack) and not dangerous. Am I wrong in that? --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 14:24, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes it is nonsense, the ESM system on Sheffield, had it not been transmitting on SATCOM would have classified the Exocet as a threat. WCMemail14:55, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
