The Germans had no chance of winning the BoB.

Their industry was not on a true war time footing.

Even during June and July they could not keep up with the losses they were incurring at the hands of the RAF.

The Luftwaffe was over politicized and poorly led, and it was organized as a tactical support branch of the Heer. It was not designed or equipped for long range strategic conflict, how could they be with only medium bombers and short range interceptors as the bulk of their force?

Coupled with the laughable state of the Kriegsmarine and the fact that Great Britain had the best planned and organized air defense on the planet at the time, and the world's largest navy and it's plain that they had no chance of success.

None.
