Seems to this civilian, without all the heavy mechanical hydraulic machinery the current launch systems need, you could actually convert one or more submarines into an aircraft launch platform - the landings would probably need to be back onto a traditional carrier.

Imagine being able to pop up out of nowhere - and suddenly there are 10 F-35’s in the air.
