I think engineering part is not that big of a problem with today's technology. But defending it is a big headache and might not worth all the resources put into it.
You don't need something like this against smaller/weaker countries, but those countries who are on par or stronger than you can destroy a fixed target like that much easier than a carrier. I think an aircraft carrier battle group is still much more practical and have much better flexibility than VLFP. I mean where are you suppose to built something like this at and not stir up trouble from every country around or near it.?

The "Glad-wrapping" on the various vehicles doesn't seem conducive to action.
They probably wrapped the weapons with plastic wrap to prevent corrosion. A little tedious if you ask me. A light coat of a weapons grade oil will do the job.

True, but than again you have to wipe off the grease in order to use it. I assuming this is like putting grease or some kind of mechanical lubrication to prevent from rusting on a breech of an artillery canon after every use. A plastic seems more convenient than the applying and wiping off the grease.
My guess is the equipment would still be usable with the grease on it.

But the equipments will be stick with lots of dust and sand with the grease.
