Has there been a detailed tactical analysis of Operation "Danto 88"?

Asked by Brian_Ghilliotti (328points) April 29th, 2017

This was a Nicaraguan military incursion into Honduras to go after Nicaraguan Contra forces and pressure them into going to the negotiation table.

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operaci%C3%B3n_Danto_88

This article is in Spanish, and I had to copy-paste it into segments into a translator to read it. From the looks of the article (which may be biased) it seemed to be a success, and the US had to launch Operation Golden Pheasant in response.

I am curious if a more detailed tactical analysis of this operation has been published in recent times in a European language? If it has, I doubt it would be in English…the Spanish Wikipedia article did give a clue, mentioning a “Center for Military History of the Nicaraguan Army”.

Bringing up a wider question, has a general history and military analysis of the Sandinista-Contra war been published in a European language?
