I would like to see carrier protection addressed. Currently a carrier needs a fleet of submarines, cruisers and destroyers around it for defense. If the new carriers require the same defense then you aren’t saving a whole lot.
Perhaps a specialized fleet of small, automated and lightly manned specialized carrier defense craft would complete the concept. A few small, lightly manned nuclear powered submarines could also be added to protect against sub attacks. These are specialty boats and won’t require the same complement and armament as their bigger brothers.
The Spanish have and are building aegis frigates that are roughly 60% an Arleigh Burke flight2.
