I think your biggest problem would be that the bird is just too tall. The Catapult would rip the nose gear off or at least collapse it as it fold forward to retact, and on landing, any tail hook would create a violent shift in the center of gavity and the tail would snap down and smack the deck. In order for it to work, you'd not only have to fold the wings, but also beef up the nose gear and move the main gear aft and lower the whole thing a couple of feet. That of course could cause some really nasty bumps on the heads of the maintenance types. You would also need bigger engines wiith more thrust so the hog could catch up with the carrier.
Another big problem you'd run into would be the need for more ships to carry all of the munitions that the hogs could carry.<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
