Short summary: not enough for a major #ghostfleet style war
We would be massively stretched to do battle repair at a scale needed, not just of ships, but also key systems like aircraft. And that is if the adversary was kind and not throwing cybersecurity and supply chain issues at the repair yards (which any thinking adversary would do)
We also wouldn't be able to surge out replacements in any number or timeframe like you saw in World War II. Both the technology and fundamentally different.
