Yes -- if the sentence had been "grounded the aircraft", then the meaning is obvious. But even though "land" is a synonym for "ground" I don't think there's an equivalence of meaning here. I'm struggling to find a sense in which "landing and enemy aircraft" is a meaningful concept short of jumping out of one plane to land on another one, removing the pilot, and landing the plane, which is a bit much for the single word "landed" to carry.
I also wouldn’t use “landed” for destroying an enemy plane (neither by shooting it down nor by destroying it on the ground)
That, realistically, leaves hacking the plane’s electronics and then directing it to one’s own airfield.
