The Battle of Midway was one of the largest fought at the time, involving over 200 ships of both the U.S. Navy and Japanese Navy. It was not the largest naval battle of the war, however. The largest was the Battle of Leyte Gulf in October, 1944.

The sea battle outside Midway in June of 1942 was the first defeat of the japanese navy at sea. It turned the battle in the Pacific by destroying 4 large carriers and many support ships in the armada that had as its objective to destroy Midway the only Island between the US West Coast and the Japanese Navy in the Pacific. Had they won that sea battle, the West Coast would have been easily made a target for bombardment and possible invasion.
