In modern warfare, air superiority must be achieved before an invasion can succeed. In late summer 1940, the German Luftwaffe attempted to destroy Britain's air defences before they could execute Operation Sealion which was their proposed invasion plan. Their aircraft losses were so high that Hitler abandoned the plan and invaded Russia instead.
