Which modern warship feels most like science fiction?

Modern carriers and nuclear submarines can feel futuristic from inside, with Queen Elizabeth's ammunition-handling systems providing a concrete example.

Question

What feels more like a science-fiction ship today, an aircraft carrier or a nuclear attack submarine?

Short answer

Both can, especially from inside; Queen Elizabeth's organized ammunition handling is one example.

Notes

Both modern carriers and nuclear attack submarines can feel like science-fiction ships from the inside. Aboard HMS Queen Elizabeth, Clarke found the organized ammunition-handling systems especially striking. Requested ammunition moved through the ship to where it was needed.
