ARA A-4Q Skyhawk - a photo on Flickriver

ARA A-4Q Skyhawk

            At the onset of the Falklands war, the Argentine Armada had quite a formidable capability including a former British aircraft carrier, the ARA Veinticinco de Mayo.  This could launch fully armed attack aircraft like the American built Douglas A-4Q Skyhawk armed with up to 6 500 lb bombs, rockets, or AIM-9B air-to-air missiles along with 30mm cannons.  After the sinking of the ARA cruiser General Belgrano by the submarine HMS Conqueror on May 2nd, the Argentinians decided to withdraw the Veinticinco de Mayo from fear of losing another prized asset.  Her Skyhawks were then transferred ashore in Argentina for the remainder of the conflict but continued to harass Royal Navy ships throughout the campaign.
