As we all know, the Japanese Empire was forced into a humiliating truce after their failed Pearl Harbor attack, where Admiral Kimmel managed to bring most of his ships to alert and nearly all pursuit aircraft into the air bare minutes before the CAGs of the Kido Butai arrived ad Hawaii, thanks to then-Lieutenant Tyler's quick thinking at the radar station on Opana Point. In the following battle, most of the Japanese naval strike capacity was destroyed, and Kimmel managed to close with his remaining battle line and completely destroy the Kido Butai, though at the cost of most of Battle Fleet's remaining units. Only a single battleship, the Arizona, returned to Pearl.

What if, somehow, Kimmel didn't find out?
