I'm not sure why the Navy hates canards. They can certainly work fine for carrier landings because they can be set up for low approach speeds (Rafale) with moderate angle of attack. And canards can be stealthy too (X-36). Northrop Grumman proposed a species of canard, the hammerhead LEX, for JSF, before teaming with Macs and losing.
