Operation Sea Lion was the German plan to invade Britain in the late summer of 1940. Before the invasion could take place, the Luftwaffe had to neutralise the RAF so that they would have air superiority. The German aircraft losses were so high that Hitler decided to abandon his invasion plans and attack Russia instead. This air battle is known as the Battle of Britain.
