In the attack on December 7, 1941, the Japanese carrier planes sank 6 ships, 4 of them battleships: the Arizona, California, Oklahoma, and West Virginia. A fifth battleship, â¦ USS Nevada, was beached to prevent its blocking the ship channel.Three battleships were damaged.he only two ships still around that were sunk at Pearl Harbor are both still in the water there. The USS Arizona is straddled by the Memorial structure built 50 years ago, an â¦ d you can stand on the Memorial and look down and see part of the ship below.
