The English had been preparing for this since Mary’s death in 1587.But only less than half the Spanish fleet left the port .The Spanish galleons were large and difficult to manuever in comparison to the smaller and faster English ships. The Armada was unable to land on the English shore because of the size of their ships .The soldiers couldn’t come on land. But the use of land troops was an important part of Philip’s plan .The English also used fireboats to destroy the Armada .A fireboat is a unmanned ship which is covered in tar to sail into the opposing fleet. The fireboats were also loaded with explosives and gunpowder. The fireboats were so effective that the Armada was almost destroyed .Only 67 ships returned to Spain .Overnight England became one of strongest country in Europe
