Finally cleared E-3. Sunk Kongou once with my 4-sub fleet out of 12 attempts, then got the remaining 4 kills in 8 attempts using 2x CV/Nagato/3x Mist ships. Despite costing so much more per run, the odds of winning are so much better (and Iona's resupply is so expensive) that the regular fleet seems more economical. (E-2 seemed to be much more cost-effective running 4 subs than a normal fleet, though, due to gravity beams owning everyone above water).

The final kill, I actually finished it with an S during day battle thanks to Haruna sinking Maya + 2 other ships with one shot of her gravity cannon. Got my first Kaga as a drop on the last kill (only my 3rd CV), too.
