If you don't want to go VLS or big gun, one thing might be a rear-loaded MRLS launcher. You'd be able to use smaller missiles in a more compact magazine for more than 80 bombardment rockets in the space as the Mk-10 magazine and launcher. Hmmm... OK, so lose the helo capability in a tradeoff for in...

You might consider replacing the old 76mm guns with it's modern successor the OTO 76SR The Mk 115 Sea Sparrow director is 1, pointing the wrong way and 2, much too old.
