Absolutely not - the U.S. Navy currently has the largest afloat Navy in the world, and with the collapse of the Soviet Union, no other nation is even close in size or strength.
Army ships are generally logistics, landing, or electronics telemetry receiving ships and tugs. They are few in number compared to the Navy, since the Navy's mission is to keep global sea lanes open.
A link below shows the current list of Army ships, excluding the US Army Corps of Engineers.
