The Japanese defenses were taken by surprise, with only five <a href="/wiki/Mitsubishi_A6M" class="mw-redirect" title="Mitsubishi A6M">Mitsubishi A6M</a> "Zero" and a few <a href="/wiki/Nakajima_A6M2-N" title="Nakajima A6M2-N">Nakajima A6M2-N</a> "Rufe" float plane interceptors sent up which were unable to catch the retreating B-24s.

About 40 Zeros were launched to intercept the Americans and in a 35-minute air battle, the B-24 gunners claimed four Zeros shot down, with one probable and four possibles.
