Edited sentence: In response many of the IAF planes headed for a third strike on Egypt were diverted in midair to Syrian and Jordan targets, and other IAF aircraft were sent against Arab ground forces in support of Israeli ground forces.Many students of Israel's military history regard Operation Moked and the Six Day War as the IDF's finest hour.The IAF destroyed 452 enemy aircraft, including 79 in air combat, while losing only 19 of its own.The Israeli jets then returned to Israel, were "quick-turned" in an incredible 7½ minutes, and departed in a second wave that attacked 14  Egyptian bases and returned with only minor losses.The astonishing operational success was achieved by concentrating on the initial destruction of the runways with special, rocket assisted cratering bombs, inflicting damage that could not be repaired quickly.see "Six Days of War" by Michael Oren (chapter 3) for referances
