What Happened to the Luftwaffe? | Aerial Warfare on D-Day Explained
On D-Day, June 6, 1944, the skies over Normandy were dominated by the Allies—but where was the Luftwaffe? Despite being once the most feared air force in Europe, Nazi Germany’s air power was largely absent during the largest amphibious invasion in history.
In this explainer, we examine what happened to the Luftwaffe by D-Day, how Allied air superiority was achieved, and why German aircraft failed to seriously challenge the invasion. From pilot shortages and fuel crises to relentless Allied bombing and strategic miscalculations, this video explains how Germany lost control of the skies at a decisive moment of World War II.
A clear, fast-paced overview of aerial warfare on D-Day and the collapse of German air power.
