When was radar first used in world war 2?
One of the first uses was during the Battle of Britain. British radar would detect oncoming German airplanes and the British would send up the Supermarine Spitfire to shoot down fighters and the Hawker Hurricane to shoot down bombers. Radar let the British use their aircraft to their best advantage. Instead of constantly flying air patrol, they could take off when the enemy was coming, and attack them where they were. It was the advantage of radar that enabled the British to defeat the Germans and showed once and for all time, the importance of radar in air combat.

What advantages did Britain have during the Battle of Britain?
The Germans had to fly over the channel, which meant the fighers had a limited amount of fuel to fight whereas the British fighters would have more fuel and the ability to get re-fueled and come back The British could recover more pilots who had to ditch because they landed in Britain and also got more damaged planes back The British had a radar which could detect the German planes in the channel The Germans had poor strategy. Part of the way through the battle, the Germans switched to bombing London. While this terrorized the civilians in London, it allowed Fighter Command to recover from when they were the target earlier in the battle and provided a fixed target that Fighter Command could assume all bombers were heading for Britain had more able allies than the Germans
