I think I recall the carrier you're talking about BA, thanks for reminding me were it came from.
I've been trying to talk myself out of TDD class subs for a few Infinties fics, but a Fen outfitted one would be a great bruised Navy ship (Black for space, Blue for saltwater, and Brown for freshwater). Admittedly I'd make them cloakships and outfit them with some heavier space weapons...
Anyway, if you WERE going with a mobile base for peacekeeping I'd drop an Atlantis style cityship on station. 'Course, I'd make it airtight WITHOUT needing an active shield, better point defense, some dedicated air/space/sea support... OK, not exactly the same. I'll try not to think too hard on this.
Wet landings, OTOH, are probably far more common than specific ships. I'd think that's how most of the larger ships would visit Earth these days.
