At the Battle of Midway, the American battle plan was to lure the Japanese fleet into a trap using the aircraft carriers USS Enterprise, USS Hornet, and USS Yorktown. American aircraft would attack the Japanese carriers, while their own carriers remained out of range. The goal was to neutralize the Japanese carriers and gain a decisive victory, which ultimately succeeded with the sinking of four Japanese carriers.
