Except if you did manage to think of a use for a fleet of unmanned drones you wouldn't need an aircraft carrier to launch them anyway. A field would be just as good.
Unless fuel or other concerns limit their operating range and you want to deploy them someplace overseas. Kind of like why we used them for aircraft, which can also be launched from a field.

Good point. You could use it for unmanned drones.
Actually that could be super cool. You could have your own fleet of unmanned drones able to do your bidding on a global scale.
To combat piracy, your drones would protect the ship of whoever bids highest for your services. Could save tens of millions in ransom fees.
