Specify the attack.
US Navy: 5 battleships sunk, 3 damaged; 2 destroyers sunk, 1 damaged; 3 cruisers damaged; numerous support ships sunk & damaged.
Three U.S. ships that never sailed after the attack on Pearl Harbor include the USS Arizona, USS Oklahoma, and USS Utah. These ships were heavily damaged or sunk during the attack and were never repaired or put back into active service. They ultimately became memorials to the lives lost during the attack.

The Japanese had 10 classes of carriers during the time
The surprise attack by Japanese forces on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, may be summarized briefly as follows: Approaching the Hawaiian islands by stealth from the northwest, a large Japanese task force released two waves of warplanes that systematically bombed naval and land targets primarily on the island of Oahu. With minimal losses, the Japanese attack left numerous large and small ships damaged or sunk. America was now at war. Yet, significantly, Pearl Harbor was soon fully operational, many of the damaged ships would be repaired, and not a single American aircraft carrier was affected, as none were in the harbor at the time.
There were no submarines sunk or damaged during the attack on Pearl Harbor; all vessels either sunk or damaged were capital ships (battleships, cruisers, etc.) or support vessels (tenders, tugs, etc.).

During the attack of the Hell Burners in 1585, around 10 Spanish ships were likely lost or severely damaged in the explosion caused by the fire ships. The exact number is not known for certain due to the chaos of the battle and limited historical records.
first answer: it took 22 years correct answer: Most of the damage done by the Japanese attack was to ships & hangers. Most of Pearl Harbor's facilities were not damaged or damaged only slightly. It would only take a few weeks or months to repair the damage to facilities. It would take longer to repair the ships that were sunk or damaged.
The Germans believed the ships were carrying war supplies to the Allies.

They were used to stop the Allies from getting supplies from America by attack the ships with the cargo on them. They were used to stop the Allies from getting supplies from America by attack the ships with the cargo on them.
The Allies were the enemies of Germany; attacking them was a prudent act of war.
