That depends entirely on what the defending British forces are composed. For example, if Britain is defending its coasts with submarine units, you're going to need naval patrol bombers to detect them and destroyers to sink them. If he has significant tactical bomber forces to attack your landing forces, you will need interceptors/fighters to establish air superiority and maintain a combat air patrol over your landing forces during the 4.5-hour period while they are disembarking and all of your units are reduced to 5 hit points with virtually no air defense. I can elaborate even further, but to give you a better answer, I need to know the following --
1. What map are you playing and what day of the game is it?
2. Do you know the general composition of the defendin British forces? Roughly how many of them are there, by unit type?
3. How and where are the British forces deployed?
4. Do you have tactical bombers? Interceptors/fighters? Destroyers? Cruisers and/or battleships?
5. Generally, what ground unit types do you have in your planned invasion force?

And all his industrial complex he has made nothing with them no air base or infrastructure.

If he has built ports in any of his IC cities, you will need to research and build destroyers to escort and counter any subs in the channel for when you cross your army. However, but based on what you have told us so far, it sounds like you will be fighting an inactive AI very soon.

I concur with Peter. No infrastructure = no armor units; no air bases = no aircraft units; no naval bases = no naval units.
The cheapest way to get an answers about enemy deployments is to build one or more interceptor squadrons and use them for reconnaissance of the coastal provinces you intend to invade.
