USS Stewart was part of the US Asiatic Fleet at the start of WW2. It was composed largely of old cruisers, destroyers, and submarines with faulty torpedoes and no aircraft except for Catalina flying boats. It had no chance against a modern Japanese fleet with aircraft carriers.

The fleet dissolved after the Philippines and Dutch East Indies fell.
