The U.S. won the Battle of Midway through a combination of intelligence, strategic planning, and effective execution. Key to the victory was the U.S. Navy’s success in breaking Japanese codes, allowing them to anticipate and counter Japanese movements. During the battle, American aircraft launched surprise attacks on the Japanese fleet, sinking four aircraft carriers while losing only one carrier, the USS Yorktown. This decisive victory shifted the balance of naval power in the Pacific in favor of the United States.
