In the resulting aircraft carrier Battle of the Philippine Sea (the so-called “Great Marianas Turkey Shoot”) on 19–20 June, the Japanese naval forces were decisively defeated with heavy and irreplaceable losses to their carrier-borne and land-based aircraft.
I det efterfølgende hangarskibsslag i det Filippinske hav (det såkaldte “Great Marianas Turkey Shoot”) den 19.–20. juni, blev de japanske flådestyrker besejret med overvældende tab, der ikke kunne erstattes af deres landbaserede fly og hangarskibsfly.
