I love huge ships, but I think in the age of missiles they just make easy targets. You're putting all your eggs in one basket. I would design ships as small, as possible. Smaller the a Destroyer if I could, incredibly fast, low to the sea with the smallest profile, but still blue water. Of course the square cube law means they would carry less missiles total. Yet they wouldn't also be target priority 1#, and have the ability to be more flexible. They can scatter like cock roaches, but still kill you just as easily. So instead of one big ship you have 30 that can each destroy two to three ships themselves. How many missiles does it take to destroy a carrier? I'd work my way back from that number. Japan as an island fortress... I can picture it. Love the idea.
