Answer:

Its Royal Air Force won the Battle of Britain.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Battle of Britain is the name given to the set of aerial battles fought in the British sky and on the English Channel, between July and October 1940, when Germany sought to destroy the British Royal Air Force (RAF). obtain the necessary air superiority for an invasion of Great Britain, Operation Sea Lion.

Neither Adolf Hitler nor the Wehrmacht believed it was possible to achieve a successful amphibious invasion until the RAF had been neutralized. Secondary objectives were to destroy the production of aircraft and ground infrastructure to force the British government to seek a negotiated solution. The Germans were defeated by the British, which served the Allies to use Britain as a base to invade Europe in 1944.
