Aircraft Carriers were the foundation of fighting in the oceans of the world and they were the reason the fighting between the US and the Japanese was so difficult. Both sides had carriers and great planes with good pilots. If it had not been for the carriers the war would not have been won by the Allied Forces.
The Japanese could not keep building new ships and thousands of planes or train thousands of pilots because they lacked the metals, oil and other materials. The pilot training done by the Japanese took much longer than the US pilot training so the US could keep replacing pilots, unlike Japan.
The carriers Ranger , Enterprise and Saratoga .

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.
