Air radars may sometimes even seem favorable to surface ones as these give a multiplier bonus for AA defence calculations. There seems to be no difference apart from the lower accuracy that Air Radars have.

I would honestly consider not using 46cm guns on FBB as the fit penalty is pretty rough. If you are going for high firepower it is understandable but using at least one fit gun (guns ranging from 35.6 to 38.1cm caliber) may be favorable. Check out the wikia section on the topic and compare the pros and cons. (http://kancolle.wikia.com/wiki/Overweight_Penalty_and_Fit_Gun_Bonus)

I wager that you are using normal red 12.7 guns on DDs, unless these are heavily upgraded I would go for green 10cm (again, since these give a multiplier bonus when counting AA defence)

I would go for RED bombers in this boss fight since the wiki states that there is a damage bonus for them. Unless you have to sortie some really bad bombres, go for dive bombers.

But aside from that the airplanes are always a bit of a struggle, please remember that during the opening airstrike RED bombers have 1x damage multiplier while BLUE bombers have 50/50 chance to have either 0,8x OR 1,5x modifier. The topic is very wide and there are other differences. In normal situations I tend to choose BLUE bombers with more than 10 torp stat and fill the rest with RED bombers. I suggest to just read up about it some day and form your own opinion, you will need it anyways someday.
