Best Answer

In 1588 (and even for several years prior), in anticipation of their intended invasion of the British Isles, Spanish leaders prepared their "Armada Invincible" in various ways. The gathering of the ships themselves, supplies, the crews, and various support personnel was one significant part of the massive undertaking. The development of a tactical plan for the fleet, in respect to the sailing route and to anticipated clashes with the English navy, was itself carefully formulated. Perhaps the most critical element, coordination with the invasion-army, stationed in Flanders and therefore needing to be collected by the fleet sailing from Spain, was also undertaken.

They relied on their navy to defend enland. Also, beacons were lit when the English spotted the spanish off the coast and this was a communication system.
