?|Designed to replace the Independence-class aircraft carriers, the Saipan-class warships were in development from 1943. Both ships of this class were built based on the Baltimore-class heavy cruisers. In contrast to their predecessors, the Saipan-class aircraft carriers were larger and carried reinforced air groups. Saipan and her sister ship entered service only after World War II and saw no action. In the early 1950s, both aircraft carriers were reconfigured and remained in service for the following 20 years. +|Anno=<!-- you can write below short description for the ship. it will replace default once. -->
  
?|History=The Saipan class aircraft carriers were a class of two light carriers Saipan (CVL-48) and Wright (CVL-49) built for the United States Navy during World War II. Like the nine Independence- class light carriers, they were based on cruiser hulls. However, they differed from the earlier light carriers in that they were built from the keel up as carriers, and were based on heavy rather than light cruiser hulls. Completed too late for the war, they served as carriers until the mid-1950s, then were converted into a command ship and a major communications relay ship in the late 1950s, and in those roles served until 1970. They were both scrapped in 1980.+|Performance=<!-- write text about performance in battles below -->

Saipan — American special premium Tier VIII aircraft сarrier.

In 1943, Admiral King demanded that two light aircraft carriers be built per year to compensate for anticipated losses. The first two ships were to enter service in December 1945. The new ships were to be based on the hull of the Baltimore-class heavy cruiser. Only two ships were built—no new ones were ordered due to the war ending. Initially, USS Saipan, which was deemed too small to accommodate jets, was utilized for naval cadet training, training maneuvers, and patrol and diplomatic missions.
