*You can use Akitsu Maru (as the flagship for additional protection). Having a [[Reppuu Kai]], a [[Type 53 Zero Fighter (Iwamoto Squadron)]] and a [[Daihatsu-class Landing Craft]] is the optimal load-out for pre-final approaches that provides 116 air power and thus air superiority at the boss node. For final form you will need 132 air power to reach superiority which requires swapping out the Daihatsu-class for a [[Reppuu]]. With this set-up your CA(V)s can be set up for artillery spotting. | *You can use Akitsu Maru (as the flagship for additional protection).
