The Raid on Pebble Island was a raid by British Special Forces on Pebble Island's airfield during the Falklands War, and took place on the night of 14–15 May 1982. Pebble Island is one of the smaller Falkland Islands, lying north of West Falkland. The site was being used as a forward operating base for T-34 Mentor and Pucara aircraft by the Argentine Air Force; British Special Air Service (SAS) operatives were tasked with destroying the aircraft on the ground, in an operation that echoed back to some of the unit's first missions during the North African Campaign of World War II. SAS elements, then embarked on HMS Hermes, were tasked with eliminating the airfield, with naval support from the Type 22 frigate HMS Broadsword as Hermes defensive escort and the County-class destroyer HMS Glamorg

  • Il raid sull'isola di Pebble ebbe luogo il 14 maggio 1982, nel contesto della guerra delle Falkland. L'incisività degli attacchi aerei argentini convinse i britannici a programmare alcune operazioni di forze speciali, principalmente a cura del SAS ma anche dello Special Boat Squadron (in seguito divenuto Special Boat Service). In particolare sull'isola di Pebble gli argentini avevano allestito una pista di volo in erba, utilizzando la pista esistente ad uso locale e denominandola Aeródromo Auxiliar Calderón,, fornendola di aerei di tipo FMA IA 58 Pucarà (dell'aviazione dell'esercito) e Mentor T-34C-1, addestratori-ricognitori da attacco leggero della marina militare armati con mitragliatrici e razzi.
