Yes guys i agree!!

But remember that if the carriers would off been destroyed then midway would off fallen to the japs as well, no?

overall i would say that in reality it probably wouldnt of made much of a difference because u.s. production was mind boggling like jaeger said. All this really might of done was give japan more time to secure more territory and try to find more oil. Also Australia might off been attacked.
