On August 10 1940 the Germans had 875 high level bombers (Heinkel 111, Dornier 17 & Junkers Ju 88s) 316 dive bombers (Ju87 Stuka) & 929 fighters, mostly Messerschmitt Bf109s, of which 227 were Me 110s. The Stukas were soon withdrawn, because they were too slow against RAF fighters, to be used in the invasion, which as time would tell be in the East rather than against Britain.
