The German Army High Command (, "OKH") originally planned an invasion on a vast scale by landing over forty divisions from Dorset to Kent. This was far in excess of what the "Kriegsmarine" could supply, and final plans were more modest, calling for nine divisions to make an amphibious assault on Sussex and Kent with around 67,000 men in the first echelon and a single airborne division of 3,000 men to support them. The chosen invasion sites ran from Rottingdean in the west to Hythe in the east.
