Now that node {{MapRoute|Z2|red}} is unlocked, it is time to clear the TP phase.
 +
* This phase uses a '''Combined Fleet'''. The same fleets used in Phase 2.5B can be used to clear this phase.
 +
* The LBAS range to node {{MapRoute|Z2|red}} is 11.
 +
* The trip to the boss is filled with dangers including a night battle at node {{MapRoute|U|purple}}, the '''New Submarine Princess''' at node {{MapRoute|R|red}} and Re-class battleships at node {{MapRoute|X|red}}
 +
** Due to all the dangers, using a Fleet Command Facility is highly recommended.
 +
** Using node support can improve the pass rate at {{MapRoute|U|purple}}
 +
* The boss is very difficult to defeat on '''Hard'''. Expect the majority of the runs to end with A-ranks.

This phase uses the following tag:

 +
* XX should either be CA(V), CLT or up to 1 SS(V).

 +

 +
* The use of CTF allows for more air power, but they are also in a disadvantage when fighting the fleet at {{MapRoute|X|red}}

==Phase 4: Defeat the European Armored Carrier Princess==
 +
Once the TP phase is cleared, the boss at node {{MapRoute|Z3|red}} will automatically be unlocked.
 +
* Once LD is reached, head over to Phase 4.5 to further debuff the boss.
 +
* Upon reaching Phase 4, the following shiplock tagging rules are in effect:
 +
** STF/CTF will now be tagged with {{ToolTip|'''Force Z'''|{{Shiplock|Summer2021EventTag6}}}}. This means that ships tagged with {{ToolTip|'''Force X'''|{{Shiplock|Summer2021EventTag7}}}} are now unusable in this phase.
 +
*** As shiplock tags are only enforced on '''Hard''', admirals on lower difficulties can disregard this.
 +
** <span style="color:red";>'''Warning'''</span>: As usual, '''Combined Fleets''' that contains {{ToolTip|'''Force H'''|{{Shiplock|Summer2021EventTag4}}}} tagged ships will be forced to starting point 2, '''regardless of difficulty'''.
 +
* The LBAS is relocated to the eastern portion of the map. This will change the LBAS range of all nodes.
 +
* The LBAS range for the boss at node {{MapRoute|Z3|red}} is 1.
 +
* As the routing barely changes, the strategy largely remains the same as in Phase 3.
 +
** CTF is not recommended and will not be suggested in this phase.
 +
** Use OASW/ASW aircraft to deal with the '''New Submarine Princess''' at {{MapRoute|R|red}}
 +
** Using Fleet Command Facility is encouraged for chipping the boss.
 +
** A repair node is now available at node {{MapRoute|X1|blue}}
 +
** Using {{ShipLink|Nelson}} is recommended for her touch attack.
 +
 +
This phase uses the following tag:
