Re: German & Allied radar

You are entirely missing the point. The fact of availability of a number of fighters does not mean anything. Important is, where they are, ie. how many in reserve, how many in training units, how many in operational standard, how many actually engaged. There were two-three groups regularly involved in combats, those being 10, 11 & 12. Compare this number to the number of aircraft actually based on French coast.
Numbers of battle were a subject of several interpretations, depending on the need of the time. That is why BC and CC aircraft are usually omitted from statistics.
Oh, the fact that the paper comes from Maxwell does mean nothing.
