Was she the only carrier, or were there others on your side who did launch planes? If no one on your side launched planes (and you had planes left), you failed the detection phase at the start of combat, which prevents you from participating in the aerial combat phase (as well as reduced accuracy/evasion). http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Combat#Detection
