I definitely wouldn’t say Britain got shown up by conscripts... Once they actually got to the Falklands they smacked Argentina around.
A win was certain but Britain took a lot of unnecessary losses. The navy got caught with their pants down and took significant damage from anti ship missiles
I would say it's the equivalent to the US in Grenada
