One interesting idea might be a reevaluation of the idea of the battlecruiser. That is, a battleship stripped of most of it's armour to gain greater speed, but still holding the same amount of firepower. The idea would be that the battlecruiser could outrun anything it couldn't outfight. Piling hundreds of VLS cells into a battleship frame, but with less armour to increase speed and still posessing large guns for VLS. That could work. With the highly mobile, long-ranged nature of modern naval combat, the idea of the battlecruiser could be an effective part of modern naval forces... Or they could blow up even more spectacularly than they did at Jutland. I really don't know.
