Why did japan destroy the us fleet in the pacific?
No. I'm guessing you mean at Pearl Harbor. The Japanese did considerable damage to the battleships of the Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor. At that time major fleet units, capital ships, were battleships and aircraft carriers. The US had fifteen battleships (with ten more building or planned) and seven aircraft carriers, about evenly divided between the Atlantic and Pacific. There were no aircraft carriers in Pearl Harbor when the Japanese attacked. This was extremely lucky for the US. It also forced the US Navy to be innovative. Battleship admirals dominated the Navy, and carrier admirals were mavericks, often considered wild-eyed visionaries. But the carrier turned out to be the dominant type of ship for the Pacific War, and the damage to the US battleships at Pearl Harbor forced the US to depend on them.All eight US battleships assigned to the Pacific Fleet were in Pearl Harbor when the Japanese attacked. All eight were damaged, some only superficially, some heavily. But only two were permanently lost, the USS Arizona and the USS Oklahoma. All the other six were eventually repaired and saw service later during the war. There were about ninety-three US warships in the Harbor at the time if the attack, and about sixteen were sunk or damaged.The Japanese could have made the attack much worse if they had concentrated some of their attack on the drydock in Pearl Harbor, and the submarine base, and especially the fuel farm. If they had destroyed or heavily damaged the fuel farm the Pacific Fleet would have been forced to withdraw to its bases on the west coast of the US, where it had been based until 1940. If they had destroyed the drydock, or even rendered its doors inoperable, it would have made repairing battle damaged ships possible only on the west coast. US submarine sailors made up only 1% of the US Navy's personnel, but they sank 55% of Japanese ships (merchant and naval) sunk during the war. The Japanese did no damage at all to the sub base within Pearl Harbor. And, of course, had they been fortunate to find any of the US carriers in Pearl Harbor when they attacked the course of the war would have been altered heavily in their favor.
