I am not sure what your point is. By number of ships, they are the biggest. I have no idea how important aircraft carrier fleet is.

Biggest by number, not by capability or weight. There are significant differences as a result.

It’s the most important part of a modern blue water navy and has been since WW2. The US also has a world-dominating submarine fleet.
