Dont forget carries werent there and if it werent for our arrogant thinking that that a tiny asian nation couldnt hurt us it would have been a victory for the US. Problem was threat was never taken seriously. Also provoked by US economic sanctions against Japan most notably the oil embargo.

Pearl Harbor was in actual fact a poorly defended port, as the Fleet were meant to sail out soon. The US had made the mistake of giving a dozen or so destroyers to the British and French Navies, who in their current state were in no shape to take on another war with the Japanese. The Japanese Koryo (Emporer) simply told his Admiral 1 thing; to declare the war with a lightning strike. The Japanese lost only 5 fighters in the attack, while the US lost about...well, a lot of ships out of commision for a while. And some it was permanant.

The fact that the ships and planes were there was enough to have turned the war in Americas favor right then, Yamamoto couldnt even believe it was a success, If we just been slightly prepared the ships and planes couldve been readied in time but then as now Americans were arrogant and did not believe those little asian people could hurt us. Additionaly there was more than just Midway, when you study the Pacific campaign its all about islandhopping. The Philippines, Gwam, Wake, I think Okinawa, and of course there were other naval battles as well such as Guadal Canal
