Esta lista de portaaviones contiene portaaviones ordenados alfabéticamente por nombre. Un portaaviones es un buque de guerra con una cubierta de vuelo de longitud completa e instalaciones para transportar, armar, desplegar y recuperar aeronaves, que sirve como base aérea marítima.
Se incluyen en esta lista los barcos que cumplen con la definición anterior y tenían un nombre oficial (en cursiva) o designación (sin cursiva), independientemente de si fueron o no ordenados, establecidos, completado o encargado.
No se incluyen en esta lista los siguientes:
- Cruceros aéreos, también conocidos como cruceros de aviación, cruceros de cruceros, cruceros de cubierta de vuelo y carburantes híbridos de acorazado, que combinan las características de los transportistas de aeronaves y los buques de guerra superficial, ya que operaron principalmente helicópteros o aviones flotantes y no actuaron como base aérea flotante. Ejemplos son los cruceros de clase Tiger británico, los helicópteros de clase Hyūga japoneses, el crucero francés Jeanne d'Arc, los transportistas de helicópteros soviéticos de clase Moskva, y los cruceros de clase italiana Andrea Doria. Vessels which meet the criteria of an aircraft transport but are named as cruisers (or destroyers, etc.) for political or treaty reasons such as the Russian Kuznetsov-class aircraft transports or British Invincible-class son incluido sin embargo.
- Amphibious assault vessels, also known as commando transports, assault transports, helicopter transports, landing helicopter assault vessels, landing helicopter docks, landing platform docks, and landing platform helicopters. Aunque tienen cubiertas de vuelo y parecen portaaviones, operan principalmente helicópteros y no actúan como base aérea flotante. Ejemplos son los buques de asalto de clase Wasp, NAM Atlântico Brasileño (A140), Akitsu japonés Transportista de escolta Maru y clase Mistral francesa.
- Los comerciantes de aeronaves catapultas, los buques mercantes que transportaban carga y un catapulta de aeronaves (sin cubierta de vuelo).
- Transportadores Escort, generalmente convertidos barcos comerciantes, ver separado Lista de transportistas de escolta por país.
- "Landing craft transports" como USS LST-906, que fueron modificados barcos de aterrizaje anfibio, porque no pudieron recuperar sus aviones.
- Transportadores de aeronaves Merchant, buques mercantes cargadores con cubierta de vuelo completa.
- Plano de mar y portaaviones, porque no podían aterrizar aviones.
- Portaaviones submarinos, porque no tenían cubierta de vuelo y no podían aterrizar sus aviones.
"En comisión" denota el período en que el barco estuvo oficialmente en servicio con el nombre dado para el país dado como portaaviones como se define anteriormente.

Estados Unidos
La Armada de los Estados Unidos es una armada de aguas azules que es la más grande y poderosa del mundo porque, entre sus numerosas otras embarcaciones, tiene la flota más grande del mundo de portaaviones de propulsión nuclear. La flota de portaaviones comprende actualmente los supercarriers de clase Nimitz (CATOBAR) y clase Gerald R. Ford (CATOBAR/ EMALS). Estos portaaviones sirven como piezas centrales y buques insignia de los Grupos de ataque de portaaviones de la Marina, con sus alas aéreas de portaaviones embarcadas y los barcos y submarinos que los acompañan, que contribuyen en gran medida a la capacidad de EE. UU. para proyectar fuerza en todo el mundo. La siguiente es una lista completa de todos los portaaviones y clases de la Marina de los EE. UU. hasta la fecha, y su estado:

Portaaviones de escolta
La Marina de los Estados Unidos también tuvo una flota considerable de portaaviones de escolta durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la era que siguió. Estos barcos eran más rápidos y más baratos de construir que los portaaviones más grandes y se construyeron en grandes cantidades para servir como una medida provisional cuando los portaaviones eran muy pocos. Sin embargo, por lo general eran demasiado lentos para mantenerse al día con las fuerzas de tareas navales y, por lo general, se les asignaba a operaciones anfibias, a menudo vistas en la campaña de isla en isla de la guerra del Pacífico, o para la protección de convoyes en la guerra en el Atlántico. Con ese fin, muchos de estos barcos fueron transferidos a la Royal Navy como parte del programa de préstamo y arrendamiento de EE. UU. Y el Reino Unido. Si bien algunos de estos barcos se mantuvieron durante un tiempo en reserva después de la guerra, ninguno sobrevive hoy, ya que desde entonces todos han sido hundidos o retirados y desguazados. Las siguientes son las clases y los barcos independientes de los portaaviones de escolta de la Marina de los EE. UU.;
- Clase de Bogue (45 barcos, 33 fueron a la RN)
- Clase de Sangamon (4 barcos)
- Clase Casablanca (50 barcos)
- Commencement Bay class (19 barcos entraron en servicio, 4 fueron cancelados)
- Naves independientes;
- No se dio nombre de la USN (AVG-1/BAVG-1) – fue a la RN como HMS Archer (D78)
- No se dio nombre de la USN (AVG-2/BAVG-2) – fue a la RN como HMS Vengador (D14)
- No se dio nombre de la USN (AVG-3/BAVG-3) – fue a la RN como HMS Biter (D97), luego a la Marina Francesa como Dixmude

Buque de asalto anfibio
La Armada de los Estados Unidos también tiene varios barcos de asalto anfibio de cubierta completa, que son más grandes que muchos de los portaaviones de otras armadas en la actualidad. Estos barcos tienen capacidad STOVL y pueden transportar escuadrones completos de aviones de ala fija, como el V/STOL AV-8B Harrier II y el STOVL F-35 Lightning II, junto con numerosos aviones de ala giratoria. Sin embargo, su objetivo principal suele ser servir como pieza central y buque insignia para un Grupo de ataque expedicionario o un Grupo de preparación anfibia, que transporta Unidades expedicionarias del Cuerpo de Marines de EE. UU. y su equipo cerca de la costa para desembarcos y salidas anfibios. Los siguientes son barcos y clases de barcos de asalto anfibios de la Marina de los EE. UU.;
