The primary goals of the United States in the Battle of Midway were to decisively weaken the Japanese Navy and to protect the strategic Midway Atoll from being captured, which would have allowed Japan to launch further offensives in the Pacific. The U.S. aimed to gain intelligence on Japanese plans and to turn the tide of the war in the Pacific by achieving a significant victory. By targeting four of Japan's aircraft carriers, the U.S. sought to reduce Japan's naval power and establish a more advantageous position for future operations.
