Add a 1960s tech for "aviation cruiser" which would be designated AC (aviation cruiser) or CC (cruiser carrier)
This would allow you to build a cruiser, with all the restrictions that entails, without a flight deck, but with a helipad, and an aircraft capacity up to 35 aircraft.
the ship type would only be able to carry helicopters, floatplanes, and fighters and LJF, it would be able to launch its aircraft without turning into the wind when not sent on strike.
If the below suggestion is accepted then the AC/CC should not be able to use fighters or LJF, but should only be able to use VTOL LJF.

This ship class would be treated like CAs by the battle generator, and would under all circumstances function exactly like CA (for hp/armor/gun topweight calculations and so on) but with the above restrictions.
