It seems to me that japan would have been able to track down the plane that dropped the bomb before the plane go there.

I'm especially confused about how the U.S. managed to bomb japan a SECOND time, why didn't japan have their guard up?

Besides everything else already stated, it "helped" that they bombed mostly civilian cities that hadn't really been targeted much previously, instead of industrial cities. Air defense wasn't nearly as strong around Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

OP, are you an AI program?

I am suspicious
