*[[Akitsumaru]] can do air superiority at boss node with at least 2 [[Reppuu (Strong Gale)|Reppu]] + [[Type 52 Zero Fighter]] or 3 [[Shiden Kai 2]] so your fleet can perform artillery spotting and prevent enemy ship do artillery spotting to you. Keep in mind that she is '''slow ship''' so you will suffer at submarine node instead.

*'''Both enemy and ally submarines do not have increased evasion during battles STARTING at night, i.e. hitting them is as easy as in any day battle'''.

*The last possible tactic is to send a fleet consist of 4 or more SS. This composition is very resource-efficient, but the drawback is a low chance of going to the boss node from I(16%) This low chance is often offset by the higher rate of making it to the pre-boss node without suffering critical damage.  A SS fleet tends to go to node B, where you can avoid damage by getting a C rank.

** If you are willing to sacrifice to achieve your goals, a variation of the composition is to use 4 SS with two disposable DD to meet the branching requirements. Use Line Abreast at node B to increase evasion vs enemy SS. If both DD survive, you have a very high chance of going to boss node when compared to pure SS fleets.(Bring support expedition for boss to gain confidence)
