Finally cleared this hellhole; try this comp if you need more fire power

2 CA/V, 2 BB, 1 CLT, 1 CV or 2 CA/V 3 BB, 1 CV

Myoukou is a reliable source of torpedo cut-in with her 32 luk and then use KTKM of course if you have her. With Myoukou as flagship, you can equip searchlight on her as well as a seaplane.

A CAV would be good if you're using 3 BB since with a bomber seaplane, she can attack the subs in the 2nd sub node and maybe you can get a technical victory. For the CV, equip either 3 Reppu and a Saiun, or if you're certain you'll have enough for Air Superiority, use 2 Reppu and the Type 62 Zero-type Bomber so she can at least attack as well as Saiun.

Calculator says you'll have 137 FP with Reppu-kai, Reppu 601 and Type 62 bomber on Taihou, which was who I used. While the required FP for the boss node was 126 according to wikiwiki I wasn't able to get Air Superiority either because of RNG since the red planes got shot down or it just wasn't enough. With Kaga, you'll have 147 FP with this set up which might be enough.

For BB, I used radar instead of AP ammo because several times BB-hime flagship survived with a sliver of HP because my BB failed a cut-in instead of double attack which could've cleared E-6. For example, there was this one time that BB-hime had less than 200 HP, with a double attack you're usually guarenteed 100-150 dmg each hit while while failed cut-ins did about 150 dmg :/ If you have enough LoS, you could always equip the star shell instead. A blog I was following suggested that searchlight and star shell give 5% cut-in each :/ Coupled with Myoukou's 32 luk and flagship status, you should have around 60-70% chance for cut-in. KTKM would have around 45 to 55% chance of cut-in.

Unfortunately I didn't have KTKM since I used her in MI, but luckily I had boosted Ooi's luk with some Maruyu beforehand so she had 25 luk (maybe around 40% chance of cut-in). So for my winning run, Myoukou cut-in and killed the 2nd BB-hime while Ooi cut-in and killed the flagship BB-hime.

God bless.
