Given the surprise achieved at pearl harbour, something like surprise attack on the illustrious

For the flagship ability we could modify Rugged slightly.

How do you mean like "Surprise Raid"? Were you thinking bonus dice, or the initiative trigger?

Another interesting thing could be aircraft placement advantage (like having your opponent have to place his fighters first, having to place extra aircraft, or you being able to switch aircraft after they are placed)

Rugged is a possibility.

But if you already have the SA on a carrier, then what?

If its the same SA, exactly, then it can only be used once.

RUGGED ATTACKER: When an enemy unit rolls successes against THE unit THIS COMMANDER IS ATTACHED TO IS exactly equal to THAT AIRCRAFTS vital armor and would destroy it, roll a die. On a 4 or higher, abort this unit instead.

SURPRISE RAID: If you roll 10 or higher on your initiative roll, choose two enemy Ships. Those Ships roll one less attack die when making Antiair attacks this turn.

I'm thinking that rugged attacker is too complicated.

For squadron commanders (air specific) i propose a standard defensive SA.

ELITE SQUADRON: The Squadron this commander is attached to has +2 to vital armour up to a maximum of 9.

In addition, i think add a bonus SA perhaps.

ATTACK PLANNING: Once per game, when a local aircraft damages an enemy ship or submarine you may add 1 success to that attack.
