Answer:

No its not true

Step-by-step explanation:

The Japanese aircraft planned the attack in secret. Which means they expected the Americans to be surprised. And since the Americans were still sleeping and only a few guards on duty, the Americans had absolutely NO time to get well-prepared. Which means that the Japanese aircraft had more of an advantage of attacking the Americans at Pearl Harbor.
