What was going to be the third wave of Japanese attack planes' targets?
During the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, there was no "Third Wave" attack planned or ready to attack. This is a post-war myth. The Japanese used all their strike aircraft (Kates, Vals & Zeros) to operate in two waves only.
The Third Wave, if desired, would have required the First Wave to land & rearm (below deck in hanger deck), then re-spot on flight deck before being launched as a Third Wave. The first two waves attacked all the intended targets that were planned for, with the exception of the two US aircraft carriers that were not in Pearl Harbor. The port facilities, dry dock, & fuel storage tanks were never considered to be the targets of the attack. Not even the US oiler Neosho anchored next to battleships was targeted.
The potential "Third Wave" would have had only a small window of time to land, rearm, re-spot & launch before the second wave started to land. The "Third Wave" would have had to start launching at 1100 hrs & complete launching 20 minutes later to avoid interfering with the returning Second Wave. The problem was that the First Wave only starting landing at 1010 hours and the landings continued for many minutes afterward. There was not enough time to resend the First Wave out as the Third Wave. It takes at least 45-60 minutes to turn-around the aircraft for the next strike. Japanese aircraft were armed below decks & warmed-up on the flight deck. In addition Japanese Combat Air Patrol (CAP) Zero fighters would also have to land & take-off during this period of time.
If by some magic the Third Wave had launched before the Second Wave returned, the Third Wave would not have struck Oahu (incl. Pearl Harbor) until 1230 hours, which is almost three hours after the Second Wave completed its attacks. This would have allowed the US defenders plenty of time to prepare their air-defenses for another attack. As it actually happened, the Second Wave lost more than double the number of Japanese aircraft than the First Wave (20 vs 9). The Third Wave's losses could have been much higher.
Also the original Japanese plan was for their fleet to prepare for a battle with US aircraft carriers (if at sea) after landing the two strike waves, and not linger around Hawaii waiting to be attacked. Other considerations: Besides the loss of 30 aircraft (1 on take-off, 9 on 1st Wave & 20 on 2nd Wave), there were at least 74 aircraft damaged from both waves.
Bottom-Line: No Third Wave & no additional targets to those already attacked.
