The Yorktown is the number one hero and the most hated aircraft carrier in history

Before the Battle of Midway, Nimitz told Roosevelt that these warships were left in the Pacific, and the west coast was after the warships. The implication is that if they lose, Japan will directly reach the United States. The United States has lost its base in the Pacific, and no matter how hard the Atlantic side works, it will be difficult to reverse the decline. If this is the Chinese thinking, these two and a half aircraft carriers will definitely retreat. But the Yankees were a good gamble and attacked the Japanese by surprise. Rewrite history in five minutes. The biggest contributor was the Yorktown, which was crippled in the Coral Sea and participated in Midway Island before it was completely repaired. As a result, the plane sent was almost wiped out. However, it attracted the Japanese. When the fleet of Enterprise and Hornet arrived over the Japanese fleet, there was almost no decent resistance (the Japanese gave all their firepower to the aircraft of the York City aircraft carrier) and they blew up three aircraft carriers. But the flying dragon left by the Japanese army spotted the York City and sent all the aircraft to attack. York City was hit by four bombs and lost its combat effectiveness. The Enterprise subsequently destroyed the Flying Dragon. Six days later, York City was still lingering in the Pacific Ocean. The Japanese submarine arrived. Six fishes sent York City and the warships that rescued it to the bottom of the sea. The York City is really the first hatred warship that the US military has pulled in the Pacific battlefield. Its defensive ability contributed to the victory of the US military.
