A Lens On: Battle of Britain - EP.2 | How did the war change the pilots?

A Lens On is a documentary-style editorial series that uses our games to explore historical events, featuring interviews and insights.

Episode 2 uncovers the hidden mental battles pilots faced in the skies. The Battle of Britain was a multinational fight for survival, with 20% of RAF pilots being overseas volunteers. By August 30, 1940, the RAF flew up to 1,000 sorties daily, while the Luftwaffe struggled with mounting stress and high suicide rates. Unlike German pilots, Allied airmen received rest periods to manage exhaustion.

Featuring expert insights from historians Victoria Taylor and Paul Beaver, alongside exclusive commentary from the game’s Lead Developer Jon Coughlin, this series reveals the strategy, innovation, and sheer courage that defined the battle.

A special thanks to the RAF Museum in Biggin Hill (UK) and to the Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar for the opportunity to conduct our interviews.
