Notes

This table includes only ships that operated between July 1937 and August 1945 and that had flight decks for both launching and recovering aircraft at sea.

The planning and outcomes of naval initiatives involving carriers were a function of the number that were "operational", ready for combat. This table indicates the number of carriers that were "operational" as well as afloat.

Carriers kept in port or otherwise not engaged in naval initiatives because of shortages of aircrews or fuel remain classified as "operational" in this table.

USS Langley was the first US aircraft carrier and is classified here as a fleet carrier (CV-1) until 1937. At that time she was refitted and was reclassified as a seaplane tender (AV-3). During the early months of World War II, she ferried aircraft and conducted anti-submarine patrols, just as an escort carrier would do. She could transport, launch and retrieve aircraft at sea and is included here as an escort carrier (CVE) rather than a seaplane tender. ww2dbase
