In 1944, Japan faced a military shock unlike anything it had ever experienced. The arrival of America’s Essex-Class aircraft carriers completely changed the balance of power in the Pacific. These giant floating airfields—fast, heavily armed, and carrying nearly 100 aircraft each—allowed the United States to strike Japan’s island defenses with unprecedented speed and force.
This documentary explores how the Essex-Class carriers crushed fortified positions in the Marshalls, destroyed Japan’s naval base at Truk during Operation Hailstone, annihilated its air forces in the Great Marianas Turkey Shoot, and ultimately brought the war directly to Japan’s home waters.
Step-by-step, we uncover how American industrial power and carrier warfare left Japan stunned… and how the Pacific War entered its final, irreversible phase.
