The British Air Force succeeded despite overwhelming odds against them.

【overwhelming】英国皇家空军虽然机会渺茫，但还是取得了胜利。

Much later in 1943 in a single night, the British air force bombed the city of Hamburg in Germany and destroyed 350,000 homes and killed over 40,000 people, a significant increase in deadly efficiency.

1943 年晚些时候，英国空军在一夜之间轰炸了德国汉堡市，摧毁了 35 万所房屋，造成 4 万多人死亡，致命率提高了数倍之多。
