Alonzo · Answer 1

Hitler planned a massive invasion by land and sea, code named Operation Sea Lion, but knew he needed to defeat the RAF first. Hitler hoped his Luftwaffe and its fierce reputation would intimidate Britain enough that they would surrender peacefully, and even dangled the prospect of a peace treaty.

Explanation:

Germany's failure to defeat the RAF and secure control of the skies over southern England made invasion all but impossible.
