The Type 21 Zero was meant for operations such as this. Take pride, and they will save you! I haven't looked at it, but in the first event I seem to recall sending pure fighters did help. Are you able to get any of those Type 21 to Skilled with Houshou and a skilled pilot in your inventory? If not, do you have a Hiryuu or Souryuu nearby Kai Ni you can rush to that level? How far behind are your larger CVLs? Chitose(Chiyoda) or Hiyou(Junyo) class have pretty large capacities. May it be possible to have one of them at a low level but in Flagship position to reduce the chance they're hit, and have them Reppu Mule?

Also take heart you're on the last map and much time remains. I just burned my Satsuki from 77 to 82 in a day, which is a kind of grinding I'm not accustomed to. Grinding up a CVL in 3-2A shouldn't be hard. Even when they're exhausted their opening strikes don't diminish, so they can farm xp pretty fast.
