May 1942, the "Battle of the Coral Sea" was the FIRST clash of carriers. The largest US Aircraft Carrier, the 888 foot long USS Lexington was lost in the battle. The Japanese lost one light carrier. Coral Sea was a "Tactical" victory for the Imperial Navy as they sunk the largest vessel. The battle was a "Strategic" victory for the US Navy, as they had stopped Japan from extending southward.
The Battle of Jutland in 1916 was the only time the German fleet put to sea in force. The Royal Navy countered this move, though the Germans inflicted damages & then withdrew to their home waters. It might be seen as a tactical Victory for the German Navy, but in terms of Strategy it was a British victory, if that makes sense...........
