Fighter combat is before AA. That means that sequence is like that:

- you got air parity first, and some enemy bombers gets through your fighters cover,

- fairy pilots of seaplane recons hear reports of enemy planes on the radio and say "Sod it. I'm not taking off",

- enemy bombers are shot down with AA fire from the surface.

In other words too little, too late. You don't have recons in the air when shelling starts.
