Instead of a C-2ish aircraft, I would suggest a modern analogue to
what was arguably the most sucessful "CSA" the Navy produced:

And this "CSA" could carry up to 12,500 lbs of ordnance internally
Why not? This time around we'll
put real ejection seats in it and
modern jet engines. The Navy
could even return to the ELINT
mission off the boat.
I'll have to ask the aviator types
what a 21st century Whale would
be equiped with.
