The Japanese sunk many USA battleships, other surface ships, and destroyed a lot of planes. The Japanese really lost at Pearl Harbor. They failed to sink any aircraft carriers, destroy the fuel storage tanks at Hawaii, or the dry docks. What the surprise attack did was to unite the USA will a vengeance and result in the rallying cry: Remember Pearl Harbor. It was only a few months later at the Battle of Midway, that four Japanese aircraft carriers were sunk to lose of one USA aircraft carrier and from then on, it was only a matter of time before Japan was defeated.
