When I cleared 4-4, I used a fleet of 2 DDs, 1 CA/CAV, 1 BB, 2 CVs. I rotated them after every sortie (either successfully defeating the boss, retreat, or wrong nodes).

Kongou-class BB - 2x main guns + Recon Seaplane + AA gun/Radar;

duo Carriers - both equipped Ryuusei Kai on highest slot, Saiun/Type 62 Fighter Bomber on lowest slot, Fighters on remaining two slots (e.g. Reppuu - Reppuu - Ryuusei Kai - Saiun on Kaga);

2 DD - both 10cm HA + Sonar for the first three boss fights, 1 DD switched to full ASW for the last;

CA/CAV - CA similar to BB. CAV either similar to BB, or 2x main guns + 2x Zuiuns.

Just watch out for nasty pattern, notably Ru-flag at the first node, or 2 Wo-flag + 2 Nu-elites at pre-boss, which will cripple your planes & ships.

Formation used: Line Ahead (1st) - Line Abreast (2nd) - Double Line (pre-boss). For the boss, I used Line Ahead for three boss fights. As for the last...I derped by pressing Line Ahead and failed to get S-rank (see pic), but I still cleared it so...

Hope this helps.
