The Battle of Britain happened between July 10, 1940 and October 31, 1940. It was a critical event in WW2 which stalled the German advance and conquest/invasion of Britain. It was fought in the air and was a battle for air supremacy to pave the way for the German invasion as, without having the sky cleared of British planes, the Germans could not successfully move troops onto British soil because the RAF would bomb them as they tried to land.

The summer of 1940, with the culmination around September 15th.

The RCAF also started to do "intruder missions" near the German airfields in France. These were night fighters who would attack the Germans as they were trying to land at their own Lufftwaffe bases, at the end of a night flight.

By the middle of September, 1941, the Germans had decided it was too late in the year to launch a invasion, so they reduced their air raids to a minimum.

The Battle Of Britain was significant as it was the first WW2 battle that was entirely fought in the sky.

Answer

The Battle of Britain was actually a campaign where the German Luftwaffe (air force) tried to bomb Britain in preparation for an invasion. It lasted for several months and had no specific start and end date. The Germans decided to call off the invasion but they continued to send bombers over England.

British historians date the battle from 10 July to 31 October 1940, which represented the most intense period of daylight bombings.

After the British withdrew from Dunkirk Churchill said "What General Weygrand called the Battle of France is over, the Battle of Britain is about to begin". It took place mainly over the South and East of England from July 10th 1940 to 31st October 1940. German sources have the Battle finishing later when the last bombing runs were made (May 1941) while the British dates cover the main action. There were 4 main parts:- 1. July 10th - August 7th Initial probing across the Channel and raids on Radar stations 2. August 8th - September 6th - Airfield raids to destroy aircraft and facilities 3. 7th September - 5th October Massed attacks against the London, other cities and industry 4. 6-31 October 1940 Night Raids
