Yeah, our planes were destroyed sitting on the tarmac. They had
been moved out of the hangars so that they could be under
constant observation. There was a lot of paranoia over Japanese
sabotage and they believed they would be safer out in the open.
Oops. We did manage to get some airbourne but nowhere near
enough to mount any kind of defense.
On the other hand, Egypt's ENTIRE air force was destroyed not just one squadron.
