what have you learnt today ???
who won ?
Although the Germans had more planes and pilots, the British were able to fight them off and win the battle. This was because they had the advantage of fighting over their own territory, they were defending their homeland, and they had radar. Radar allowed the British to know when and where German planes were coming to attack. This gave them time to get their own planes in the air to help defend. The Germans lost there patience and bombed the country instead.
WHAT WAS THE BRIISH RESPONSE
The British had Spitfires and Hurricanes over all they only had 1000 planes,but luckily: New Zealand,Canada,Australia and South Africa helped them out.

The german plan was to destroy the R.A.F [Royal Air Force] and the radars so the german planes could invade Britain without being detected by the radars.
