What was the battle of coral sea?

The Battle of the Coral Sea, in early May 1942, was one of the major turning points of the Pacific War. It was the first battle in which aircraft carriers engaged each other, and the first naval battle in which neither side's ships sighted or fired directly upon each other. The engagement ended with no clear victor, but the damage suffered, and experience gained by both sides, during and after the conflict, set the stage for the Battle of Midway one month later.

Who was The winner of the coral sea battle?

== == There was no clear victor. The Battle of the Coral Sea (between May 4 and May 8, 1942), to the east of New Guinea in the South Pacific, was considered a tactical victory for Japan since the U.S. lost a fleet carrier (U.S.S. Lexington), while Japan only lost a light carrier (Shoho). But at the same time, the battle was a strategic victory for the Allies because it forced the Japanese to abandon their attempt to land troops to take Port Moresby in New Guinea. Japan's expansion was stopped at this point, and the stage was set for the decisive Battle of Midway a month later. After Midway, the Japanese never stopped retreating.The Battle of the Coral Sea was also significant because it was the first fleet action in which aircraft carriers engaged one another without ever sighting each other. It was the first naval battle in history in which neither side's ships sighted or fired directly upon the other. If the superiority of naval air power over dreadnoughts had not been proven at Pearl harbor, it was proven once and for all in the Coral Sea.
