Unfinished Centaur hulls as fleet maintenance carriers

Harriers are considered manageable, while support for Phantoms and Buccaneers would depend on how extensively the ships were completed or refitted.

Question

If the four unfinished Centaur-class hulls replaced Unicorn, Triumph, and Pioneer as maintenance carriers, which aircraft could they support?

Short answer

Harriers are considered manageable, while support for Phantoms and Buccaneers would depend on how extensively the ships were completed or refitted.

Notes

The aircraft limit depends on how extensively the unfinished Centaur hulls are completed or refitted for maintenance work. Harriers are considered manageable across the proposed ships. Phantoms and Buccaneers are the difficult cases, with their suitability left conditional on the refit. The necessary refit alterations are left unspecified.
