Pearl Harbor
Japan lost its Pacific War against the US already during the first day. The overall aim of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, on 7th December 1941, i.e., the destruction of US aircraft carriers, was not achieved. The carriers were simply not in the harbor, but at sea at a location unknown to the Japanese attack forces. Thus, only some old US battle ships were destroyed. But Japan knew that carriers would be the crucial weapon of this war. Is is this way future generations will write about our war, the Ukraine / Russia / Nato War 201x?
