Depending on the number and type of ships you are facing, you don't have nearly enough firepower (#ftr X #missiles X WH strength) to accomplish much, unless you intend on building multiple tenders and utilizing them as a group.   Given your tech level and the amount of resources required, you might be better of with a large number of smaller missile armed ships with sufficient missile defense of their own.

Fuel range on the FAC's is a little low too.

Yes, I'm going to have multiple carriers.  My planned battle group, for now, consists of 2 carriers (42 fighters), 10 point-defense frigates, 5 missile destroyers, a surveillance cruiser, and attendant tankers, colliers, and jump tenders.  I have no idea if it will be enough, but hopefully it will still be a force to be reckoned with.
