Two iconic Royal Navy aircraft are embarking on an 8,000-mile journey to become the centrepieces of a museum in the Falklands.

A retired Sea Harrier jump jet and Lynx helicopter are being transferred to the South Atlantic as part of a new exhibition dedicated to the liberation of the Falklands from Argentine rule in 1982.

The capital Stanley is gearing up to expand its existing gallery, which recounts the gripping tale of the conflict, by adding a new hall for larger exhibits – including the two veteran aircraft.
