In lead, you've got extremely and huge. I'd change huge to daunting....and take out extremely? or use a word that is not as puffed?
Changed "huge" to "daunting" Hawkeye7 (discuss) 23:07, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Second Para of Black Buck One: the seal perished? how about the seal failed?
When talking about rubber, "perish" means the deterioration caused by aging. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 23:07, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
...bombing handed over to the control system. The attack was delivered around 0700Z.  ? what handed bombing over?
I meant that control was handed over to the automated system. Changed to "automated bombing control system system was engaged" Hawkeye7 (discuss) 23:07, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
defeated radars controlling the defending ... plural on radars?
Correct. Changed to "defeated the radar systems controlling the defending Skyguard anti-aircraft cannons." Hawkeye7 (discuss) 23:07, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
...the Argentine...wrongly assessed.... incorrectly assessed?
Er, sure. Changed. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 23:07, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
