Why are aircraft carriers not sitting ducks despite their weaponry What is there to protect them from the missiles of a powerful enemy intent on taking them out?
Counterfire.
Aircraft carriers only go to sea as part of carrier battle groups or carrier strike groups. The carrier is protected by three kinds of ships: cruisers, which carry a high-power radar called Aegis that can detect incoming missiles and that can launch anti-missile missiles, several frigates, which carry anti-missile missiles that are guided by the cruiser's radar, and submarines.
Not only can this radar system detect a missile in flight and direct missiles to shoot them down, it can figure out where the missile was launched from and fire a missile at that place to destroy the launcher.

Why wouldn't they make Aircraft Carriers larger than any other type of ship such as cruise ships cargo ships etc?
Aircraft carriers are designed for specific military functions, prioritizing operational efficiency, speed, and maneuverability over sheer size. Their large size is already dictated by the need to accommodate flight operations, weaponry, and crew, but further increasing their dimensions could lead to challenges in navigation, port access, and structural integrity. Additionally, the costs and logistics of operating and maintaining an even larger vessel might outweigh any potential advantages. Ultimately, the design balances multiple factors, including mission requirements and tactical flexibility.
