It would have taken a huge land invasion for Germany to defeat Britain. All the German battles for superiority from the air failed in the BOB.

German arrogance was superior to their stupidity for not scrutinizing the British tenacity, resources and ability to defend "their island". The Germans did not do a sensible accounting to determine whether they could win.

Hitler was surrounded by Yes men, and dolts, with few exceptions. The Luftwaffe's record was always backed up by land forces. This was ignored by Hitler. The arrogant Hitler and Hermann Göring were full of cheese and confidence.

Everything the Luftwaffe could muster was used against England and results were rarely acceptable. The lightning air war just didn't cut it with the bulldog tenacity of the British... to never give up.

It would take some very powerful arguments or debate to convince anyone that Germany achieved any kind of victory in the Battle of Britain.

So lose, quit, walkaway, find something else to do could never be considered a victory. Unless victory meant something entirely different than it is explained in a dictionary.

Undoubtedly... the Brits won the Battle fo Britain.
