The British, through signals intelligence, deduced that that house was where General Menéndez stayed and had his headquarters. For this mission they sent a Wessex Helicopter armed with AS 12 guided missiles. In the darkness under naval bombardment cover, the Wessex approached the coast at low altitude and the weapons officer fired and guided the missile with night vision devices to the target. An Argentine Intelligence section was sleeping at the impact site.
