A large Japanese naval operation is launched to take the strategically important Port Moresby. Japanese and US Carriers play a dangerous cat and mouse game, both trying to find and strike each other without themselves being found.

Do what you've gotta do to pay the bills, man. I love your content and am glad you've got these opportunities.
It amuses me how many of these stories start with "however, American/British code breakers...".
Germany: "This is the plan. Got it?"
Japan: "Yep, cool"
Italy: "Yep, cool"
US/UK: "Yep, cool"
đ€Ł
US/UK: *ducks back behind fence separating them from the neighbors*
Code breakers were so important to the war effort. If it weren't for them, the war probably would have been much different.
@@Igzilee same end result but after much more destruction and death
The British broke the main code for Nazi Germany early on and had to use it strategically as to not alarm them that they had broken it.
When you're not sure if the burning, flooding light carrier is gonna sink, so you triple and quadruple tap it just to be sure.
Well,it was a carrier.Priority target #1 after Pearl.
Dude, so true, that shit got me laughing bro
If it was a US carrier, there definitely would have been the possibility of the damage control parties putting the fires out and stopping the leaks.
Something like this almost happened at the Battle of Midway. When the two SBD squadrons from the Enterprise finally came across the carriers, everyone started to follow the lead attackers onto one carrier, the Kagi. Fortunately, a Lieutenant Best recognized this error and took his group to attack a second carrier, Akagi. Had he not done so, the Japanese would have had two carriers rather than just one after this attack.
I laughed so fucking hard when I watched that
The more I watch these videos, the more I realize how accurate the Battleship board game is

PDs hit shoho with 2 1000lb bombs"
Me:ok
"Torpedo bombers come at Shoho from 2 sides hitting her 5 times with torpedoes, causing flooding and thus neutralizing her".
Me: Alright we got her.
"Yorktowns aircraft arrive"
Me: wait hold on.
"25 aircraft attack her and do 11 more 1000lb bomb hits"
Me: Guys she's not a threat anymore calm down.
"Yorktowns torpedo bombers arrive and hit her 10 times."
Me: SHES FUCKING DEAD GUYS CALM DOWN!
A B-52 arrives and drops a nuke just to be sure.
Those US Aircrew behind it maybe they didn't know how many hits that Shoho was already striked, they are not even aware if it was fleet or light carrier, but they focus mostly on them, because 'light carrier is more important than Battleship'.
@awesome guy because the us battleships could have interdicted the Japanese plans for the invasion of the Phillipines, and with the IJN elsewhere, they wanted to remove that threat
Stop! Stop sheâs already dead! đ
@@ivan_pozdeev_u a cruise missile strike to be sure
the most confusing thing about this battle is that the American Mk 14 torpedoes actually managed to sink something
Well that was because they didn't use the MK 14 on the ShĆhĆ...MK 13 was used...the early MK 13s worked very well. Really killed the ShĆhĆ. But after they ran of of them they used the later version of the 13 (with propellers after the fins) on the other two Japanese carriers.. with very poor results.
@@deafsmith1006 they were using the same Mk. 13s at Midway a month later and those performed in a manner that should have resulted in summary court martials for everyone at BuOrd who even _thought_ of the word 'torpedo'.
â@@marckyle5895bro replied a year later, hope he finds this message
@@-ZM_Gaming- No worries if he doesn't
Despite the bureau of ordinance's best efforts some of the mk-14's did actually work as intended, 20% of them to be specific.
Task Force 17: This is an attack.
Shoho: Dear god.
Task Force 17: There's more.
Shoho: No...
(Hits her 21 more times)
The Billy Mays style of warfare.
Zukaku and shokaku :rip our friend light carrier shoho

@@yoseipilot Shokaku and Zuikaku: You touch my ship, I will break your fucking knees
*Proceeds to nae nae on Lexington*
5th Carrier Division launch her strike and finding Task Force 17: *''scratch the bathtub''*
I am laughing very hard at wave after wave of aircraft attacking the T17 Support Group, and the last wave is actually US bombers, like the confused looking around scene from Pulp Fiction.
Really shows how incredibly confusing situations like this actually are. Both sides are on the razors edge of failure.
âFortunately their bombing, like the Japaneseâs, was disgraceful.â
Ya burnt!
Reminds me of that time British Swordfish bombers tried to sink the HMS Sheffield, thinking it was the Bismarck.
@@AudieHolland they would sunk her but for the explodey magnetic fuses on the torpedoes.
Which one?
It's amazing how the Pacific war reshaped the concept of naval warfare. Essentially overnight most traditional naval tactics became obsolete and the strategy became centered around these massive games of hide and seek. Find the carriers, and send everything you can possibly send to kill them. Do that, and you win.
And after that, naval warfare just became find the ships, since enemy is unlikely to have carriers now, and throw a few salvos of cruise missiles against them. Naval warfare severely shrank after this war
â@@earlvinbicoputinov1566although to be fair there haven't been major powers going at it, at sea, since ww2. If China ever has a go at Taiwan we will get a look.
Those carrier planes overkilling the Shoho just want the assists.
American aviators we're untested and just a bit cocky. They had similar problems during the Marshal Island Raid in February, and will still at Midway the month next.
Hey man, anything for an additional EXP's.
There is also the fact that the Japanese aircraft mistakenly thought Yorktown was a friendly air carrier later in the battle.
*Lands on Yorktown*
"Hey, why.... why.. uh.. did we capture American planes or.."
the Yorktown must have been the ultimate zombie boogeyman by the end of the war for the japanese
@@mackhomie6 no. That was Enterprise.
@@ph89787 I dunno. midway?
@@mackhomie6 that was only a month after. Also the IJN thought they were only facing 2 carriers. So even though they did eventually sink Yorktown. They thought they got Enterprise and Hornet.
What a lovely surprise on a Saturday afternoon.
Agreed. Especially this time of year.
I get âem Sunday morning in Aus - perfect!
It's Monday morning

Love the USA and Japan war at sea đđ
Being an Admiral leading a task force in this situation sounds like the most stressful thing imaginable. So many decisions to make, so much information coming in (often inaccurate), and any wrong decision can spell doom for the task force or even doom for their country's efforts in the theater.
that is the reason not everyone in a Navy becomes Admiral.
@@lapin46 very true
@@lapin46 We in the future are so lucky we had these men in charge and in battle back 80 years. And that's theunderstatement o f understatements.
facts. seems like the hardest job in the world because if you fail you and hundreds of your comrades die
after 6 months of this, fletcher lost dozens of pounds and came down with shingles. took him several more months to recover and return to the front line
God damn, Shoho is the ultimate case of "Stop, its already dead!"
This situation seems just... So utterly farcical. Everyone's missing everyone else, the two sides being 70 miles apart and never knowing... I can only imagine that there was lots of swearing once all the After-Action Reports were compiled.
Fog of war is a bitch. This is why satellites, FLIR, and GPS are so crucial.
This was the first carrier vs carrier battle. Nobody got it right on the first try.
Imagine the faces of the admirals if they could see this video today
Its the first time in history two naval fleets have ever fought a battle without being able to directly see each other, they were never going to get it right the first time.
It was a new kind of warfare and both navies were making up the rules as they went but missed opportunities were the norm before GPS. Early in WWII in the Mediterranean the Italians were out with a cruiser group looking for a British cruiser group. At the same time in the same area the French had a cruiser group out looking for the Italians. In all the maneuvering at one point all three groups were within thirty miles of each other and never spotted each other. A good what if for a miniatures replay is the French and the Italians did ran into each other.
imagine the feeling of your CO telling you that you just cost the United States 2 carriers. I dont even want to imagine that feeling
I'd just clear the bridge with a major Fart.
@Rod democRAT lol
@Rod I feel bad that your mind has been so poisoned that you feel the need to comment politically on a complete non-political statement. Maybe some time away from the internet might be a good idea?
@@Alexander_Grant Some time away from the internet would be good to all of us
Fletcher was an awful! He was constantly wrong. History shows he was always blessed with capable subordinates. The only loss his officers and men couldn't save was Wake Island, hence the low opinion of him by Marines as well as other Admirals. He was quietly given shore duty after 1942.
Imagine you're a sailor operating on flight deck of Yorktown or Lexington and see Japanese planes tried to land on your ship
This Illustrated to me better than any other lesson I've had so far the amount of confusion and blind stabbing in the dark that led up to this battle, which none of the time could have known was so pivotal.
I think montemayor made a pretty good video on it
Wow, the IJN Shoho wasn't sunk, it was slaughtered. Interesting to see the TBD's did accomplish something of note before the butchery at Midway.
I believe why they where so succesful was because the conditions where ideal for torpedo attack. They didn't have massive amount of flak coming at them and no enemy fighters either, so they had time to line up their attacks perfectly on a allready damaged and probably slowed down carrier. In Midway they didn't have any of those benefits and pretty much got slaughtered before they could make their attacks. Military Aviation History channel made a good video about the TBD that explained all this I just wrote in a more greater detail if you want to learn more.
@@pyorre2441 Exactly, at Midway it was an actual combat situation, and the TBDs proved unfit for such conditions, unfortunately
And IJN Shoho was *only* carrier that was hit by TBD Devastor with Mk.13 old Torpedo
Meanwhile, the ablazed crew on the ShĆhĆ: This is fine
Ah. The Battle of the Coral Sea. Also known as the naval version of "It is a Tiger!"
Is this a reference to allied tankers claiming any tank they see in Normandy is a tiger? Even though there were barely any tigers assigned there?
@@Rokaize Yep
@Apocalypse21 I've seen several references to "torpedo boats" that seem like a kind of running joke. My investigation of the naval aspects of the Pacific war being somewhat recent, I'm not quite up to speed yet. Can you fill me in on the "torpedo boats" reference? Thanks.
@Apocalypse21 Cool! Thanks for your kind reply, and thanks especially for pointing me in the Drachward direction. In fact, it's on Drach's channel that I've seen most of the "torpedo boats" references. And given his penchant for brilliant (...I think so, anyway) tongue-in-cheek humor, I've gotten the impression that the joke is based on one of the witticisms Drach sprinkles throughout his excellent videos. Thanks again, amigo. đ
*Task Force 17.3 got attack by Japan and US planes*
Task Force 17.3: WTF! Did we piss off someone?!
Thank god they are shit shots.
Sir that last pass was the army.
A pleasant stormtrooper moment! :p
@@OrDuneStudios Ah that's why
Damn, they kinda went overboard when they turned the Shoho into scrap metal
PEARL FUCKING HARBOR
@@offensivebias1898 ok?
When even overwhelming firepower isnt enough so you go full dakka.
i don't think anyone's gonna be finding much to scrap after that much damage...
You forgot about Nanking didnât you. No such thing as overboard when killing imperial Japanese
The lack of situational awareness compared to today reminds me of reading Cujo. Written in a time when cell phones weren't a thing is all that makes the peril in that story believable.
And the fact that all of King's stories take place in New England explains why no one has a gun to just shoot the damn thing.
@@benn454 Yeah we are pretty hamstrung here.
People who watched the teaser earlier:
"They got us in the first half not gonna lie"
For real, heâs playing with our emotions now
Wow, the new animation of carrier aircraft launches looks really sharp!
I agree. What a exciting surprise when the camera zoomed in and showed the aircraft launching one by one.
Shouhou: _"Oh boy, I sure do love being an IJN carrier"_
^^ *Clueless*
Shouhou 15 minutes later: *_"My day be so fine. Then boom; Fletcher"_*
My dad was with the 20th Seabees which with Army, Marine Radar units and other Seabee units invaded Woodlark Island in July 1943. There were still remains of Japanese sailors by the hundreds from the carrier Shoho who had washed up on the beaches of Southern Woodlark Island who were killed in the battle of the Coral Sea.
It's a shame Yorktown'ts planes didn't target the rest of the flotilla, rather than striking an overkilling blow on the light carrier.
But, as said by someone else in the comments, hindsight is 20/20.
The rule of war of the sea is the aircraft carrier is the first priority since the commander is mostly station as long as she float target her more!!
The US got a lot of lessons learned from Coral Sea, they managed to take some onboard by Midway, but even then control of the strikes was luck more than design.
Those US Aircrew behind it didn't know how many hits that Shoho was already striked, they are not even aware if it was fleet or light carrier, but they focus mostly on them, because 'light carrier is more important than Battleship'.
Great production quality, 10/10! When will the second part of the Battle of Modigashu come out?
Very soon, hopefully đ€
My grandfather managed Rabaul golf course after the war, the amount of relics on those islanders he said was amazing. He said the Japanese eventually came back years later and cleaned it up. But to this day thereâs plenty of crashed planes through the forrests and a few ships still there.
One of the main air fields thereâs was destroyed by a volcano and all you could see was the tails of the planes.
I feel like that Japanese Light Carrier was a guy who messed up with the wrong gang and got beaten down by an angry mob, then it was dragged in the streets, rolled over by a truck, then it was set on fire. Then it got loaded on a plane, dropped off that plane 3,000m in the sky without a parachute. It was then shot by machine gun fire for 30 minutes, followed by an artillery strike. Whatever was left of it got chopped into perfect one inch cubes only to be dropped in lava.
I've rarely seen such an overkill in naval warfare.
My step dad served on the USS coral sea. Just that name brought back so many memories. I miss the old fÂżc#er
âStop! STOP!! Sheâs already dead!â
*points at Shoho and cries*
"A further 11 1,000 pound bomb hits, and 10 more torpedo hits" This is literally the "Stop stop he's already dead" meme. Jesus Christ.
The attack on the Shoho is the equivalent of scoring a hit in battleship and then spending the next 20 turns calling that exact same location.
Shoho is the definition of overkill
Shoho admiral: "STOP, STOP, WE'RE ALREADY DEADDD"
Holy overkill Batman, thatâs a lot of punishment oh that carrier
16:00 why did the B26s try to bomb friendly ships lmao
Now that's overkill.
They smashed that jqp carrier holysmokes
Hindsight is 20/20. If someone made WWII in a 100% historically accurate strategy game, nobody would play it. Lmao
I do play War on the Sea though, and it's pretty accurate regarding fog of war/reconnaissance and such
3:38 ah yes the legendary simplicity of Japanese operations design
Me: So you started a series on the Gulf war?
TRO: yes
Me: And then you also started a multi video series on the battle of Mogadishu?
TRO: Exactly
Me: And despite this you start a new series on the corral sea?
TRO: Yes, hereâs a trailerâŠ
PS: Love your videos m8, keep it coming
Shoho: freakinâ dies
Every escort: đł
These are better than ANYTHING being put put out by The History Channel or Discovery. Thanks for all your time and energy put into these videos. These accurate break downs of battles are incredible.
Wow, thank you!
This channel, Montemayor and Historia Civillis all show just how badly those two cable stations suck now.
Me = finally back at home from a 14 hour day eating and mostly drinking. Quite drunk, quite tired. Sat deep in the couch, feet on the coffee table, pick my phone up and realise this gem is waiting for me. My night is complete. Thank you TOR.
This channel has become my new obsession, I can't wait for the second part of this and the second part of the battle of Mogadishu
Iâm a simple person, I see operations room upload.. I watch
A Saturday night treat.
Fantastic coverage of the battle. Look forward to the next part.
Japan: _has six fleet carriers available_
Also Japan: "Let's just take two fleet carriers and a light carrier and leave most of our carrier strength behind, what could possibly go wrong?"
If anyone was wondering, specifically the song which was used was Expectancy in Cinematic section for Purple Heart Music.
That is just pure overkill
I just imagine two people facing away from each other separated by 1ft..looking for each other with binoculars lol
Never realized the Shoho got hit with that much ordinance. Kind of amazing it stayed afloat long enough to absorb all that.
I had to work today and came home dead tired. What a nice surprise to find an Ops Room video waiting for me. Not gonna be a bad Sat after all...
That carrier bombing was overkill damn
LOL Poor Shoho, no kill like overkill I guess.
First naval battle where the ships couldn't see each other.
Shoho ablaze and sinking........
Yorktown attack force....."Let's practice for the next battle at Midway"
I can feel the tension of both sides in this story. Can't wait for your next vid. Excellent work!
Thank you so much!
this is the best way to tell history. this and mark felton
Thank you for uploading. The Battle of the Coral Sea gets so little attention following so close to Midway, but I find it so interesting. Love the details you've included. Outstanding job.
Ayooooooo, my girl shoho got obliterated. I can't imagine the escorts watching Shoho became a fireworks wave after wave.
Absolutely love that you show the planes taking off,also well done on all the effort on this
Thanks a lot!
Shoho translated into English means overkillâŠ.
That said, a nice warmup for the absolute carnage to come.
I randomly got recommended this channel and now I'm addicted
Watch the Desert Storm playlist next
This is like a game of hide and seek where both of the players are actually seeking each other
Search and destroy at its finest!
An Operations Room Vid on saturday? A surprise to be sure but a welcome one.
If there's anything more apt for the "Stop! Stop! He's already dead!" meme, IJN Shoho was it.
Outstanding, as always, by âThe Ops Room.â Wish my late WW2 dad could watch this. He was involved in the defense of Port Moresby, which if Coral Sea and Santa Cruz had been lost, wouldâve been very bloody for the US and its allies.
Fantastic as always! Can't wait till Part 2!
Jesus christ they REALLY wanted to sink the Shoho đ€Ł. Almost 20 bomb hits and not far off 15 torp hits. MURICA
Outstanding as always! And I am definitely looking forward to part II.
Shoho: exists
US: Peace was never an option
Shoho: Exists
US Navy Carrier Attack Aircraft: "And we took that personally."
Was literally just thinking how nice itâd be to watch a new Operations Room video, what a blessing! Thanks brother!! A1 job once again!!
Blind Luck or divine intervention that IJN missed sinking Yorktown and Lexington giving there pilots bombing the Shoho a safe place to return.
The Japanese Zero had a range approaching 1600 miles. It would seem that the IJN could have moved on for two days and still been able to deliver the 9 Zeros to Rabaul. Any thoughts on how that move could have impacted the battle?
Well that range was not all that long.... Effective combat radius was more like 550 miles( yes 1100 miles or so 'range'.)
Thank you once again. Your productions are a healthy counter-operation to that shit which fill every nook and cranny on the 'Net.
Just finished Ian Toll series and Iâm onto The Fleet at Flood Tide. Great timing
One of my favorite parts of any video is when the admiral calls the allied bombers disgraceful after surviving a friendly attack!
BABE WAKE UP
NEW OPERATIONS ROOM VIDEO
God, battles like this would be SO different in modern age. I'm not sure a carrier group could hide with satellites around nowadays. Just no way. They'd def. never come 70 miles from each other and not know it haha. Really love Operations Room's recent videos.
They really are different these days. If the USA ever goes up against an enemy that has an actual advanced military (unlike absurd middle east "wars") its gonna be horrid for both sides.
I find satellites, radar and gps lame af.
Its more fun to be in fog of war
@@tygrenvoltaris4782I know Iâm late but I agree with you bro.

Glad you like them!
your videos just get more refined and wonderful each time, cant wait for part 2! great work mate!
As someone who want to go into Cavalry/Recon, your videos make me more and more aware of just HOW important good information is.
A great animated story as usual. I hope that part 2 will be published soon. I am looking forward to that !
fantastic quick recapof the history..tx u...
You never fail to amaze me guys. Wonderful take of this battle. As a man who served in the navy, you guys are amazing!
The attack on shoho is surely overwhelming
