Drake distracted the Spanish Armada by launching a series of raids and attacks on their ships and ports, notably during the summer of 1587. His most famous act was the destruction of the Spanish fleet at Cadiz, where he sank or captured numerous vessels. This delayed the Armada's plans and forced them to regroup and resupply, ultimately contributing to their defeat in 1588. Drake's tactics were instrumental in undermining Spanish naval power during this critical period.
