HQ level 88, Difficulty: Hard

Initially I ran the AFHI route with DD FBB FBB CV CV CL with 245 Fighter power but even with so much FP, I still fail to gain air superiority at the boss node. I did this for 4/7th of the HP bar and I realised that this is definitely not the way to go. Having DD flag Yukikaze might give you some lucky hits with the torpedo cut in though, since it can never miss. Provided that she is not badly damaged... and you hit the right target ... and you survive the previous nodes (which is really difficult since both node F and H are very threatening.

With the AFGI route, it is much safer since node G is much easier to beat than H plus this route allows the use of a CLT which can hit one of the destroyer abyssals so that the battleship has a higher chance of hitting something more threatening. This setup has 190 fighter power for me which beats enough enemy planes though unfortunately on the final run the Wo managed to torpedo Myoukou and RJ to red and I was put in a very bad position to kill the Wo kai.

Luckily Kitakami double attacked the Wo kai at night and she just died.

I used Yukikaze before for the DD but I switched to Ushio for great survivability.
