None. The US was the last country to remove battleships from it's navy (in march 2006, though this was just keeping them - uss Iowa and Wisconsin - in readiness in case they were ever needed - they along with the other Iowa class battleships were decommissioned in the early 90s). Battleships are outdated now missiles can inflict just as much damage, but don't need such a huge base/target to fire them.

There are no battleships left on active duty in the US Navy.

None are in commission right now but if world war 3 ever broke out there are a couple in moth balls.

Enough to handle our business. What do you mean 'How many are left'? Did we lose some somewhere that I don't know about?

I think just the Iowa class, which was four ships. Out of those four, I think only one is active, if that.
