I
Its Royal Air Force lost the Battle of the Atlantic.

Its land troops outmaneuvered Germany’s.

Explanation

In 1940, Germany tried to gain control of the skies over Britain before invading. The Royal Air Force defeated the German Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain, preventing the invasion. The Battle of the Atlantic was a prolonged naval campaign, not a battle fought by the RAF, and Britain’s troops did not outmaneuver Germany’s forces in 1940.
