So I dont play carriers at all like never even looked at one so please fill me in on this do carriers not have the ability to fire any type of artillery other than aa?  Because im fairly sure that most of them did.  Hell even in the old battlestations midway and battlestations pacific you could switch to artillery to fire at a dd.  So please tell me this isnt so because if it is I understand now why dds that get close to you usually take a cv out.

If something gets past a CV's planes and within a certain range, the CV's secondary guns will open up automatically. These secondaries can range from nonexistant (Independence) to terrible (Langley, Bogue) to decent when given some TLC (Ranger) to pretty good (Midway, Hakuryu).

Carrier gameplay is aircraft based. AA fire is automatic but can be disable, just like normal ships. Most of them have secondary battery that works exactly as any other ship

So you only get the auto guns oh that sucks at least in battlestations pacific you had manual control of shot selection on the bunker hill and enterprise meaning you could actually point and shoot youre secondary guns when in a tight squeeze

If they were modeled like PHNTFRT they'd be pretty awesome.

 

Would be nice ‎( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

At least we know they have an in-game model for the Yorktown-class CVs! Even if it was only for a super annoying match mode around Halloween.

All defense weapons of a Carrier are automated, you can hold ctrl, and give them a select target, but overall, they fire on their own, and do their job (at varying degrees of effectiveness) without human intervention.
