Why would you bother installing 3 750 KW Diesel Generators? A more sensible approach would be to upgrade the SSTG's on board. Each one (8 total) Generate around 1250KW each. So 10,000 KW (or 10 MW) from all 8 currently on board. They are saying you need 2250KW more to incorporate AEGIS which would be 12,250KW total. You can go with 6 2500KW GE SSTG's in place of the 8, which would bump your output to 15,000 KW or replace all 8which equals 20,000 KW. You would be able to meet the demand with 5 online of the 8. Or you can upgrade the current 8 to produce 1900+ KW per generator and that would give you 15,200 KW total. More than what is required. Many options. When planning these things you should always go above what you need. In the event of a TG that is down you can still meet the Demand. Normally if you are taking a TG down you would start the EDG, conduct PCC's, load, parallel and then go through the steps of bringing down the SSTG. If you are going the upgrading route, might as well upgrade the EDG's as well.

This all can be done. So if Aegis can not take the blast pressure from the 16" guns, that seems like a problem that can be taken on and overcome. It would only increase the ruggedness of the Aegis system. Remember, Aegis is installed on warships, not pleasure boats. From that development, it would benefit all other Aegis ships and it can be incorporated as a mod for the current ships and ones that are to be built.
