What's your take on why the Germans lost the BoB? I think it was because they shifted from hitting airfields/radar installations and moved to cities. I read that the RAF was on its last legs..


Willpower and the lack of actual strategic bombers.

That is one oversight from the Germans I've never really understood. They built up the Luftwaffe into the worlds premiere tactical air force but totally ignored the opportunities having a strategic air force could bring. Imagine had we tried bombing Germany into submission by using nothing by B-25's and B-26's. For all intents and purposes that what the Germans tried to do in the Battle of Britain.
