I'm confused. What do you mean by "Ford refused to supply the Brits Merlin engines under license"? It was a British engine.
The Merlin engine was developed by Rolls-Royce. It was built in the US by Packard, and in Manchester by Ford of Britain.

@TawpDawg123 there were a couple Americans who actually flew in the Battle of Britain as volunteers ....this battle took place before the US was even in the war....learn your history before you make ignorant comments

Most of those Packard Merlin engines did not go to the U.K....They actually went to Canada ( for the most part ), for many reasons, not the least of which is that they were building planes here for the RAF long before the U.S. entered the war.
Canada entered the war on Sept.10,1939, and places like Halifax, Dorval, Goose Bay, etc., were crucial.

I thought there was something different about those Heinkels...I noticed a large oil storage plant, some mountains too high to be in England, and no fighters shooting back at the He's...Lost video of Guernica perhaps..? Now that would be a story....!!

What did the commentator say? "The besieged fortress is Germany no more, but Great Britain."
Well, it wasn´t until long, `till THAT changed again...

@TawpDawg123 . Operation "Sealion" was put on hold indefinitly .The English flatter themselves over and over about the BOB , reality is; the Germans would have succeded had they focused solely on the English.The Russians found out just how powerful the German war machine was during Babarossa.Also that is not a clip from the BoB?? Looks like HE-111G `s designed early 30`s as so called "civillian transport ", not to break Versailles treaty conditions.

FUCK OF WAR!!! The most important is the future that never again was war. But we have to remember about polish people. They first fight

Nothing like a good marching tune to set what were young farm boys to killin' other young farm boys..
Anyone else notice that the bombers actually dropping the bombs are an early variant of the He-111 that wasn't actually used during the Battle of Britain, but was used extensively during the Spanish Civil War, especially on Guernica?
Also the commentator mentions dropping bombs on London. If so, it's an extremely Mediterranean London. It's my belief that this film used old film from the Spanish Civil War as all it's own propaganda footage of the real battle was shot out of the sky.

the luftwaffe propaganda commision (lets call it that way) was known to show nice looking pictures and film of results to the German people, although it was not accual footage taken from the scene, so you probebly right on that part
