Didn't they build a bunch of islands as a buffer with ship killing missile capabilities of hundreds of miles?

Islands don't move around too well. Submarine launched ballistic missiles do. Those are just targets.
That said, I'd be nervous as frick if I was on the first cruiser that has to approach them after the SLBM attack. All it takes is one surviving launch site to kill a ship from a thousand miles away.
