I've seen that too. It is very possible to go into combat with just a handful of bombers and kill every thing and not lose anything, if you time your moves, pauses, skipping turns, etc. Its in the timing and I haven't figured it out yet, but I did the same thing as you, went up against a far superior force and didn't lose anything and killed all of them. I just got lucky in how I moved because I basically made them come to me and they did so piecemeal.
