They were just about defeated after Dunkirk. If Hitler had pressed the advantage and invade then and continued the hammering of the airfields they might have won. The navy prevented that to a degree. But England would have been an easier conquest than France. Once paratroops secured a beachead, the Wolfpack could have kept the British fleet at bay, albeit at a heavy price, as they had the British naval code and the German code was not yet cracked. Then a Cornish toehold would have succeeded. About ten divisions of troops could then be airdropped as the Luftwaffe kept the airstrips busy with bombings. In 8 months it would have been all over if they had attacked in 1942. But Hitler delayed, obsessed with Russia who could not invade him at he time and stewing over a large scale operation and control of the sea and air. He did not need it. Hitler screwed up the Luftwaffe by delaying the Jet program. Jet bombers would have been hard to beat. In fact the Luftwaffe had air superiority and by bombing Radar stations and airfields they could have kept the British blind and defenceless against an air invasion. EC<:-}
