In the aftermath of the Pearl Harbor attack, panic grips California as a Japanese submarine surfaces off the coast.

Meanwhile, a tank crew and a group of civilians, including a dishwasher and his girlfriend, become embroiled in a series of misadventures as they try to defend their country. Amidst the chaos, a United States Army Air Forces captain wildly cruises his Curtiss P-40 Warhawk around the western states in search of Japanese forces.
