==Map Overview==
E-3 consists of 3 main phases and requires the use of Single Fleets, Striking Forces, and Combined Fleets.
* This map uses 4 to 6 locks:
** [[File:{{ROOTPAGENAME}} Tag 2.png]] '''2nd Torpedo Squadron''' (from E-2, E-3, & E-5),
** [[File:{{ROOTPAGENAME}} Tag 3.png]] '''Supporting Combined Fleet''' (from E-2),
** [[File:{{ROOTPAGENAME}} Tag 4.png]] '''Combined Fleet''' (from E-3),
** [[File:{{ROOTPAGENAME}} Tag 6.png]] '''Operation I-go Fleet''' (from E-4 & E-5),
** [[File:{{ROOTPAGENAME}} Tag 7.png]] '''Counter Landing Force'''
** [[File:{{ROOTPAGENAME}} Tag 8.png]] '''Decisive Combined Fleet'''
** {{TextGlow|'''Some tags can be mixed in all difficulties'''|black|text-colour=Lime|glow-size=2px}}, see ''[[#Branching Table|here]]''.
* Initially, no LBAS is available to be sortied to this map
** Clearing Phase 2 allows one Land Base to be sortied
** Clearing the unlock for Phase 3 allows two Land Bases to be sortied
** Clearing Phase 3 allows three Land Bases to be sortied
* '''[[Early Spring 2023 Event#New Mechanics|"Airstrike Supported Battle" nodes]]''' are present on {{MapRoute|B|darkorange|Y2|darkorange}}
* '''"Night Battle" nodes''' are present on {{MapRoute|H2|purple|T|purple}}
* '''"Enemy Ambush" node''' is present on {{MapRoute|S|orange}}
==Phase 1==
* Striking Force: '''"1FBB, 1FBB/CV, 0-1CVL/CAV/CLT, 1CL, 3DD"''' [[File:{{ROOTPAGENAME}} Tag 6.png|30px]]
* Route: {{MapRoute|1||A|red|C|red|E|red|G|red}}
** This fleet can utilize a [[Special Attacks#Kongou-class Touch|''Kongou''-class Touch]].
==Phase 2 - TP==
Phase 2 is a '''"[[Transport Operation]]"''':
* TCF: '''"1LHA/CL/AV, 1AV, 4DD + 1-2CAV, 1-2CL, 3-4DD "''' [[File:{{ROOTPAGENAME}} Tag 7.png|30px]]
* Route: {{MapRoute|2||H|pink|H2|purple|J|pink|K|darkorange|M|green|O|red}}
** A [[CVE]] can be used instead of the LHA/CL/AV, adding an extra node ({{MapRoute|L|red}}).
==Phase 2.5 - Gimmick==

* LBAS: Range 1, AP/AS ??/??
** At least 5/3/2/1 (H/M/E/C) ships need to be equipped with [[Surface Radar]]s to avoid the '''"Enemy Ambush" node''' on {{MapRoute|S|orange}}.
** The use of the {{IconText|{{FCF}}|SFFCF}} {{Equipment/Link|Striking Force Fleet Command Facility}} (SFFCF) is recommended
** The boss is an '''[[Installation]]''' and requires appropriate gear to be defeated,
***She is especially weak to "Nuke" setups
** The boss fleet includes one or two [[PT Imp Pack]]s, requiring appropriate gear to be defeated (these can be ignored as S-rank is optional):

** The {{Ship/Link|I-201|I-203|text=''I-201''-class|link_category=I-201 Class}} have outstanding historical bonuses in this situation.
** 6/4/3/2 [[Surface Radar]]s are required to route to {{MapRoute|Y|red}} on (H/M/E/C)
==Debuff==
Once LD has been reached, the following steps have to be performed to debuff the boss:
{|class="wikitable"

<tabber>
|-|Node G=
*Use [[#Phase 1]]'s fleet
|-|Node O=
*Use [[#Phase 2 - TP]]'s fleet
**Can be done at the same time as node {{MapRoute|L|red}}
|-|Node L=
*Use [[#Phase 2 - TP]]'s fleet with '''1[[CVE]]'''.
**Can be done at the same time as node {{MapRoute|O|red}}
|-|Node X=
*Use [[#Phase 3]]'s fleet
|-|Node Z1=
*Use [[#Phase 3.5 - Gimmick: Unlocking the shortcut]]'s fleet
|-|LBAS AS=
*This step can be accomplished by sending 1 SS(V) until the Air Raid is triggered.
*''Numbers may be different due to the presence of unknown elements''
