When the carrier gets upgraded by affinity, it will get a second slot, and a choice between a third slot or a bonus based on the affinity.
Also technically it holds 2 planes since tacjets are a squad of 2.
It may seem really ridiculous that you only get 1, but frankly due to tacjets' buggy interaction with naval units (in vanilla at least) they're downright overpowered when facing a navy.

I'm pretty sure their meant to wreck other ships, the planes do the damage from afar because if anything gets a hit on the carrier, the carrier will take a lot of damage, plus it's kinda realistic, if u blow a hole in a ship, it sinks.

The other uograde is giving the planes on board more range, so u can either have more firepower or more range. Carriers are meant to provide support to naval battles or even land battles from a distance, not to actually get involved. Pretty nice for hurtin cities a bit to

That's only the Supremacy upgrade. Purity gives planes on board a 20% combat bonus and Harmony heals them each turn.
