Not even the F-35C with a three stream engine can get the carrier strike group far enough from harm to even be of use in the Pacific. NGAD is a monster. Naval version of course has constraints such as elevator and deck footprint, but it is still going to be a bit larger than an F-14. In my opinion, of course.
The main reason why that won't happen is reach.
