You have to practice those landings and after some time they won't be that hard anymore.

A tip is not to approach the carrier straight from behind all the way.

Try it like this:

It will allow you to look at the carrier for a long time while setting up your approach. You just line up with it at the very end of your approach. Doing that you avoid flying "blind" for a long time while the carrier is obscured by parts of the plane.

Here a record of it (just put it into your Il2-1946 records file)
Approach

Some planes can even lift the pilot's seat (only with opened canopy) to give him a better view out of the cockpit during final approach.

P.S.
