This will have Argy Colonial Command crying ‘British militarisation of the S. Atlantic’.

But they don’t need to worry, it’s only going to patrol Falkland’s waters.

If there is a global war, it will not be this ship that will protect the islanders from a war. The Royal Navy will have to divert much more troops and resources to protect the Islands.

Other than that, there won't be any problems. Never.

Bras, talking garbage as usual, its a fisheries patrol vessel not a warship, the one warship , 1 sub, 4 fighter aircraft and missiles based on the islands are enough to destroy anything Argentina has now or for the foreseeable future, stop living in cuckoo land war monger,
