Germany had no operational carriers, although the keel had been laid for one late in the war. The "Graf Zeppelin" was begun, but never completed, even though a squadron of Stukas and Messerschimdt fighters were adapted for carrier use (tail hooks and rubber rafts added). A caterpult system was purchased from Italy. The war ended and the USSR claimed the carrier hull as a war prize. Germany was not a sea power and had only limited ambitions to ever compete in this arena. It could never rival the British as a naval power. Hitler was aware of this and didn't want resources wasted on a ship program. Their Nazi naval efforts were mainly to create havoc in the shipping lanes and keep the Royal Navy at bay by using submarines, of which they manufactured over 1,000.
The answer is 'yes'. According to 'Jane's Fighting Ships of World War II'; 2 were laid down in 1936 under the naval programme of that year. They were the 'Graf Zeppelin' and the 'Peter Strasser. Only one, the 'Graf Zeppelin' was completed. It was photographed from the air, fitting out, alongside a quay at Kiel in July 1940. It is then believed to have proceeded to Gdynia in Poland. Length was 820 1/2 feet, beam was 88 1/2 feet and draught was 18 1/2 feet. She was built to take 40 aircraft. I can find no record of involvement in any action and she obviously did not survive the war as Jane's has to guess at some items such as the superstructure. As the Russians advanced through the Baltic States the Germans carried out a lot of withdrawals by sea and suffered large naval losses which don't appear to have been well documented. It's possible that the 'Graf Zeppelin' was one such casualty but that is only a presumption! I will try to find out more. And more input: Having done a lot more research, scrub the supposition at the end of my first submission. Rivalry between Goering, who delayed the development and production of the necessary aircraft, and Raeder gave rise to delays and the ship was only about 90% completed. She was removed to Gdynia in 1940 as a safer location to be laid up. She was used to store the fine fittings removed from other German warships to reduce the risk of fire during combat. Fear of Soviet bombing caused her to be removed again, this time to Stettin. In 1942 she was returned to Kiel for more work but other priority work caused more delays so in April 1943 she was returned to Stettin for good and as Raeder was removed from office (at his own request) work never resumed again. She was scuttled in shallow water in April 1945 but was refloated by the victorious Soviets the following spring and eventually towed to Leningrad in 1947.She appears to have been damaged on the way and could not be repaired so she was towed into deep water in 1947 and used for target practice by Soviet ships and aircraft. She did not sink easily. The wreck of the Graf Zeppelin has never been located.
Luftwaffe was the German Wehrmacht's aerial defense force. During the entire period of second world war Germany produced a total of 119,871 aircraft for use by Luftwaffe. Germany lost a large number of these aircraft during the war.
During World War 2, Nazi Germany only had 1 aircraft carrier called the Graf Zeppelin. Nazi Germany did have plans to build at least 12 different types and sizes of Aircraft Carriers but they didn't have Time or the Resources needed to completed any of them.
Fleet Carriers (Examples: USS Lexington, USS Enterprise)
Light Carriers ( USS Princeton, USS Independence)
Escort Carriers (USS Gambier Bay, USS Bismarck Sea)
Fleet carriers averaged about 70 to 90 planes per carrier.
Approximately 10.
The Allies needed lots of ships for the same reason any army needs a navy. They needed to transport troops from America to Europe everyday and patrol the coasts of the US for German U-boats (submarines) to keep American people safe. Also, in the pacific aircraft carriers served as airports for the air force. Lastly, the Allied army needed to have some type of defense from the other enemy battleships.
In terms of technology: United States > France, U.K., or Japan > RussiaIn terms of Size: United States > Russia > People's Republic of China(note, the above presumes you only count active-duty and ready-reserve aircraft)Notes:1) Israel, Japan, and South Korea largely purchase or receive aircraft technology from the United States, though the Japanese also have a significant domestic military aircraft industry.2) The various NATO countries purchase much of their aircraft from the United States, as do several US allies, including the Republic of China (Taiwan) and Australia.4) Most western European countries pool their combat aircraft design and manufacturing into multi-national consortiums. Thus, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Italy work together to design aircraft and produce them for their own air forces.5) India largely purchases military aircraft and less sophisticated aircraft technology from Russia, though this is slowly changing (as they both purchase more from Western countries, and do more design and production themselves).6) Technology is measured by stealth fighter and bomber capability.7) Space technologies become increasingly important for modern day airforces, though they aren't always under an Air Force's control (many countries have separate military space commands).Finally, remember that there are really a very limited number of countries which can produce modern military aircraft. Practically all of the world purchases their equipment from these countries; the US and Russia are the primary exporters of modern combat aircraft, with France next, and there are several European consortiums which produce a variety of military aircraft.
There are 257 countries in the world.

There are currently 153 world leaders who have the title of president.
There are aircraft carriers all over the world. America has about 16 of various types. Many other countries also have aircraft carriers.
I know the United States has 9 aircraft carriers. Rest of the world??
there are many diffrent kinds of carriers, a super carrier can hold 113 aircraft
About 69
Answer6 Aircraft Carriers
Four fleet carriers
one
Even if you exclude the smaller aircraft carriers in World War 2, there were still many more than 5 or 6. The US Navy commissioned 23 aircraft carriers of the Essex class during the war, not to mention others in US service, and those used by the British and Japanese navies.

None
No, but on many occasions they carried aircraft armed with torpedoes.
None, there were no aircraft carriers in port.
