Gentlemen & Ladies,

0550 = Bombing from destroying enemy targets (36.9% enemy targets destroyed)
1094 = Defense, from undamaged parts of their bases
TOTAL = 2329
Japanese

396 = Bombing from destroying enemy targets (26.4% enemy targets destroyed)
950= Defense, from undamaged parts of their bases
TOTAL = 2221
General Comments
Obviously the U.S. was much better at getting their bombs on target than the Japanese. They ended up sinking 2 CVs, 1 CA, and 3 DDs. Plus damaging 3 more CVs. However, there own bombing efforts were not as successful only lighting damaging the U.S. land bases over all and sinking the 1 CA of the U.S. naval force in the region (the U.S. DDs survived).
That said the Japanese definitely won the air way and inflicted greater losses on the U.S. forces as they pressed to their targets.
Overall it evened out to basically a tie with the U.S. being up by 108 points.
