The Zero played a role in the attack on [[Pearl Harbor]], escorting the Japanese [[bomber]]s and strafing installations.  Nine Zeroes were lost in the attack, but they shot down at least ten defending American fighters and destroyed many more on the ground.

Zeros were present for almost every battle of the Pacific War that had an aerial component.  They were especially prominent in the carrier battles, such as those at [[Battle of the Coral Sea|Coral Sea]] and [[Battle of Midway|Midway]].
