Why Operation Sea Lion remained a paper invasion

The German plan to invade Britain was an aspiration that its own planners could not turn into a credible operation.

Notes

Operation Sea Lion was far-fetched, and even German planners recognized that it was not going to work. The scheme remained a dream rather than a credible operation that had merely been denied its chance. A named plan and surviving paperwork do not by themselves prove operational feasibility.
