The US built over 2000 Liberty ships and a few hundred Victory ships during WWII. While we were doing that, we also built some 800 warships including a couple dozen fleet carriers, several dozen escort carriers, eight fast battleships, dozens of cruisers, and hundreds of destroyers, destroyer escorts and submarines. And that’s just ships. The US was building shit in the 40’s.
