It would cost an immense amount of money and be a stupid concentration of force.

An interesting concept, something that a few modelers that I know have tried with the Iowa. The problem is however the immense cost of the missiles. It would be unbelieveably powerful and would most certanly rank a ship as super capital ship.

You're also going to run out of space before you've crammed a tenth of the missiles on board. Missiles and launchers are a lot less dense than armoured turrets.
“Close” only counts with horseshoes, hand grenades, and tactical nuclear weapons.
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error
