The most famous classes (of warships)? Without a doubt...the Fletcher class destroyers of WWII. 2nd place would go to the USS Yorktown class aircraft carriers (of which only the USS Enterprise survived...only to be scrapped in 1959). 3rd place would go to the Gato class US subs. It wouldn't be fair to bring up the US battleships...all they did was get sunk at Pearl Harbor, or have a surrender ceremony on their decks. US battleships fought no decisive battleship fleet actions (Leyte Gulf & Admiral Oldendorf's engagement may have been the last battleship to battleship fight...but it certainly wasn't a great clash of dreadnaughts...as the IJN battleships had been chewed up by PT boats and destroyers before they even reached Oldendorf's battleline, and then it was only TWO Japanese battleships).
It is nothing short of miraculous that the Americans won the battle. Admiral Halsey had been successfully lured away with his modern battleships, carriers, and cruisers, by Admiral Ozawa's decoy force, leaving Admirals Sprague's jeep carriers and Admiral Oldendorf's elderly battleships to fight the battle. The IJN had the superior firepower in this, the largest sea battle in history, yet somehow the USN won it.
USN Admiral Oldendorf had SIX US battleships engage two IJN battlewagons under Admiral Nishimura on 25 October 1944 at Surigao Strait. Battleship USS South Dakota was shot to pieces by IJN Kirishima's 14 inch guns at Guadalcanal in '42. Battleship USS Washington snuck up on the Kirishima (while she was blasting the SODAK) and blasted it to a wreck during the same battle.
