Ultimate soldier. Ultimate mission. But can the SAS prevent the
launch of Exocet missiles at the British Task Force? May 1982: as
the British Task Force prepares to retake the Falkland Islands, a
lone Sea King helicopter makes an apparently forced landing in the
southernmost reaches of Chile. The only threat to the Task Force -
and the enemy's only hope of ultimate victory - is Argentina's
Super Etendard aircraft and their sea-skimming Exocet missiles.
Since radar cannot be relied upon, the British must opt for a less
conventional warning system. Before landing in Chile, the 'stray'
Sea King drops a team of men into Argentina, where they are tasked
with remaining hidden within sight of the airfields and within easy
reach of the enemy's security patrols. Getting the men in is easy
enough, but staying unobserved is another matter - and eventual
escape will be next to impossible... Mission to Argentina tells the
electrifying story of this SAS operation from the inside - a
heart-stopping thriller about the regiment equalled by no other:
the SAS!
