The U.S military seems to have put a great deal of effort into carrier fleets after WWII. Did the Soviet Union do the same or did they have a different focus for their navy? If so, what caused the two powers to focus on different aspects?

The discussion was obviously not moderated to /r/askhistorians standards but this was recently discussed over on /r/warshipporn, here and here.

If posting to discussions elsewhere is not appropriate could a mod let me know, thanks.
