帝国空军在澳北取得一场颇为痛快的胜利。
% [! K! Y/ M3 x5 ]7 e# [当天帝国集中大量疾风丙和紫电改机队在布纳对盟军在澳北的主要的航空基地波特兰路发动了一次航空歼灭战，帝国空军集中兵力全力突击，本来预计会与盟军机队展开一场残酷厮杀，不料盟军战斗机部队管理松懈，在前线放起了大假，完全没有考虑到日军突袭的可能，没有部署一架直掩战斗机，结果被日军大破机场，并在地面上被击毁击伤大量飞机，帝国部队损失微不足道。

巧合的是，正当帝国参谋部紧锣密鼓地筹划这些行动的同时，盟军航空兵部队也在同一天为帝国准备一次行动，大量海盗战斗机和雷电战斗机扫场了日军莫尔兹比港，同时大量双发和4发轰炸机光临，将莫尔兹比港机场大破，不过帝国并没有在当地部署战斗机力量，因此行动扑了个空，仅仅对机场设施造成了暂时性的损坏。同时，在行动中，莫尔兹比港部署的高炮部队发挥了巨大威力，击落6~7架盟军轰炸机，一举打破了前几天刚刚由波纳佩基地高炮部队创造的最佳射击记录。/ h6 n9 c, R8 q C
