The Battle of Britain was a major air campaign fought over southern England in the summer and autumn of 1940. ... The Battle of Britain was ultimately a test of strength between the German Air Force (Luftwaffe) and the RAF. The RAF had become an independent branch of the British armed forces in 1918.
