If you can't get your Type 3 sets but still want to tackle E-4, I think you're better off just stacking ASW gear rather than equipping damecons (which I feel is a waste of a slot). The flagship is, at the very least, an elite sub. Try to get a couple Type 3 sets, they're pretty useful anyways and the recipe is cheap to spam.

And as the others say, switch out that CV for a BB/BBV to get a second shelling. I went for BBV and stacked zuiun (2 regular ones and 2 634's) as they can at least take down an elite Ka-class in one or two rounds. I didn't bother trying to win pre-node boss, just tried to reduce the pre-shelling aerial attacks.
