How many battle ship were sunk in pearl harbor when the Japanese attacked?

Answer 1

Only three were lost permanently: USS Oklahoma, USS Arizona, and the USS Utah (redesignated training/tgt ship). All three are still on the bottom (Oklahoma between CA and Hawaii).

However, whats interesting is that some of the surviving BBs at Pearl Harbor ended up permanently on the bottom of the ocean anyway after the war, being used for target practice:

1. USS New York

2. USS Pennsylvania

3. USS Arkansas

4. USS Nevada

Another words, the Japanese had put about 6 battleships on the bottom during their attack, but about 3 were raised and put back into service. But now there are 7 US battleships on the bottom; 3 from Japanese bombs and torpedoes and 4 from US bombs and torpedoes.
