The Spanish Armada was defeated in 1588 primarily due to a combination of superior English naval tactics and unfavorable weather conditions. The English fleet, led by Sir Francis Drake, utilized faster, more maneuverable ships and employed innovative strategies, including the use of fire ships to disrupt the Spanish formations. Additionally, the Armada faced a series of storms, known as the "Protestant Wind," which further weakened their forces and scattered their ships. These factors ultimately led to a decisive victory for England, marking a significant turning point in naval power in Europe.
