Sir Francis Drake is well-known for his exploits as a privateer, circumnavigating the globe and raiding Spanish ships and ports. However, one notable event that was not an exploit of his is the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588, which was primarily led by Sir Charles Howard and other English commanders. While Drake played a role in the naval strategies and preparations, he was not in command during the actual battle against the Armada.
