The Battle of Britain proved very costly with losses over Britain in 1940 amounting to 313 machines between July-October 1940. It was during the closing days of the Battle that the flagship Ju 88 A-4 went into service. Although slower yet than the A-1, nearly all of the troubles of the A-1 were gone, and finally the Ju 88 matured into a superb warplane.
