actually - there wouldn't be an explosion involved, and they very deliberately design those rockets not to go off unless fired. Because otherwise you have these problems with things exploding.

look at what happened with british shells vs german shells back in WWI.

but the fan would tear itself apart, and could damage the hull of the carrier, depending on its exact design.
