For this operation, you will be organizing a combined fleet to fight against an installation with very high HP, along with achiving high air power and then facing off against a carrier fleet in the finalie. As such you will be make sure not only your ships are up to part for locking purposes, but to also make sure your equipment is capable enough to help take care of the instllation.

With the combination of your LBAS, and a well put together fleet, it should be possible to clear the [[Supply Depot Princess]] easily even on last dance. As long as you have the Anti-installation nuke and have a means to wipe out the other units this of the battle should be cleared easily.

In this phase, you are required to kill the enemy Wo-Class Kai 7 Times on Hard to clear the map. She herself is not particularly tanky or threatening , but is escorted by a BB Water Demon capable of soaking a lot of Damage as well as a CVL and some other light surface units.

As noted above, the boss is not difficult due the fact the flagship is a Wo-class carrier Flagship Kai. All you will need is a well placed double attack / CVCI to defeat her. The rest of the enemies will fall easily (save [[Battleship Water Demon Kai]] so unless you have intent to farm this node for drops, clearng the map should be done with minimal effort.

Once you deplte the HP gauge and sink the flagship carrier, the map is considered complete.
