The Destroyers for Bases Agreement (1940) was a deal where the U.S. transferred 50 old destroyers to Britain in exchange for 99-year leases on British naval and air bases across the Americas and Caribbean. This directly bolstered Britain's naval capacity to fight German U-boats, while the U.S. gained strategic bases. The other options are incorrect: the agreement did not involve Soviet territory/waters or German waters.
