The Battle of Jutland in 1916 was the only time the German fleet put to sea in force. The Royal Navy countered this move, though the Germans inflicted damages & then withdrew to their home waters. It might be seen as a tactical Victory for the German Navy, but in terms of Strategy it was a British victory, if that makes sense...........
The Battle of the Coral Sea was fought during 4–8 May 1942, and was a major USA, Japanese naval battle in the Pacific.
The war in the Pacific was a NAVAL WAR. Land battle victories were irrelevant. A victorious army holding an island could be starved into NO ARMY AT ALL without control of the sea to re-supply it. SOME of the key naval battles in the pacific were: The Battle of the Java Sea, The Battle of the Coral Sea (Japanese tactical victory/US strategical victory), Battle of Savo Island, Sea Battles off of Guadalcanal, Battle of Midway, Battle of the Philippine Sea, Battle of Leyte Gulf (history's largest naval battle), and the battle between the British battleship & battlecruiser, HMS Prince of Wale & HMS Repulse, both of which were sunk by Japanese Army twin engine bomber/torpedo airplanes.
