Not after it's shot down by a few .50 cal bullets from a single Zero.
If a B-17 was scouting before the Pearl Harbor attack, successfully located the Japanese fleet, and conveyed the information to Pearl, this information would have more than justified its loss. The presence of that B-17 in Hawaii could have had a major impact on the Pacific War.Depends. If the Macon was scouting before the Pearl Harbor attack, sucessfully located the Japanese fleet, and conveyed the information to Pearl, this information would have more than justified its loss. The presence of Macon in Hawaii could have had a major impact on the Pacific War.
But a B-17 wouldn't have the range and autonomy of the Macon, nor would it have five scout planes with it.If a B-17 was scouting before the Pearl Harbor attack, successfully located the Japanese fleet, and conveyed the information to Pearl, this information would have more than justified its loss.
