Why were there more aircraft destroyed than ships during the attack on pearl harbor

They had guns on board the ship and shot them down also more japanese fighter jets. I mean lets face it there were alot of ships at pearl harbor so more jets to  take down all those boats.

Explanation:

“the iliad” (gr: “iliás”) is an epic poem by the ancient greek poet homer, which recounts some of the significant events of the final weeks of the trojan war and the greek siege of the city of troy (which was also known as ilion, ilios or ilium in ancient times).
