It was the first major naval battle of the Pacific War that was an overwhelming defeat for the Japanese Navy. The US Navy lost one aircraft carrier but Japan lost four of its' six main fleet carriers. It was also the turning point of the war in the Pacific, Japan was always on the defensive after Midway.
