Japan was unable to sink any of the three US Aircraft Carriers, as they were out of the operation zone, at training (one was pursued by a submarine, but managed to sink the sub); Lexington, Enterprise, and Saratoga. If these were to be too vigorously pursued, the Japanese planes might have failed to continue damage on the harbour.
