During world war ii, us naval forces were able to intercept the japanese fleet before it reaches midway because

US intelligence had deciphered messages laying out the Japanese plan.

Explanation:

The Japanese defeat was something built over years of warfare and was started in 1942 during the Battle of Midway. This battle between the Japanese Imperial Navy and the US Navy was considered by the Americans as one of the main moments of the war in Asia. The Midway Islands are small islands located about 4,000 kilometers from Japan. Their achievement was important because it would allow Japan to disrupt the Allied supply routes in Australia.

What Japan did not expect was that American intelligence knew of the Japanese attack on Midway. In early June 1942, the Japanese fleet was advancing towards Midway Island. However, the intelligence service of the US Navy had just deciphered the Japanese naval code, preparing a surprise attack against them.
