Their radar equipment was effective.
The Chain Home radar network gave the RAF early warning of incoming raids so fighters could be vectored to intercept efficiently, conserving pilots and planes. That advantage, plus good aircraft (Spitfires/Hurricanes), skilled leadership in Fighter Command, home-field repair/replacement, and German strategic mistakes, allowed Britain to prevail. Churchill’s speeches helped morale but weren’t the main military reason, and spies did not play a decisive role in this battle.
