The Japanese thought they would cripple the American Naval fleet with their attack at Midway.They hoped that another demoralizing defeat (Pearl Harbor being the first) would force the U.S. to capitulate in the Pacific War and thus ensure Japanese dominance in the Pacific.

The American codebreakers broke the code and learned the date and time of the attack and were able to defeat the Japan Naval attack.
