The Japanese lost the Battle of Midway because the Japanese planes were away or refueling when the American Planes found the Japanese carriers. The American planes scored direct hits on three Japanese carriers and sent them to the bottom of the Pacific. The Japanese wer efocused on taking Midway Island as a base to attack Hawaii and the rest of the US. The Americans wanted to stop them. The American PBY Catalina search plane discovered the Japanese force and allowed the Americans to coordinate better, while the Japanese were attacking the unmovable island. Another major reason the Americans won, was because of the efforts of the fire and repair teams of the USS Yorktown at the battle of the coral sea. She suffered a direct hit and was able to be repaired in the shirt time between the battles. the japanese were not expecting another carrier to be in the battle.
