6 missles?  For the cost of a CV I can pick up a lot of these bastards. 
 Like for the cost of a book Light Carrier, I can put 19 on the field.	
And a thrust 8 ship can outrun fighters.

And no, a book Fleet Carrier cannot survive, even with 2 Escort 
Cruisers next to it, 18 missles.  I've seen one try.
