If you have nothing but crappy fighters, you’ll be forced to take a lot of them in order to get Air Superiority, which means your CVs won’t do anything during the battle. With more bombers, you have a much higher chance of taking out fodder targets before shelling starts, which means fewer targets for your BBs to waste their shots on. More bombers also increase their shelling damage, which is particularly important for CVLs.

I'm not saying you should burn all your bauxite crafting them, though - use your daily crafting quests for planes until the event is on, and only spam-craft if you absolutely have to after seeing what you'll actually be facing.

You’ll also want to keep leveling more DDs, so keep training Akatsuki and Asashio + either Kasumi or Ayanami. For CAs, get Tone to Kai then focus on the Myoukou-class, especially Haguro. If you have time, give more levels to the FBBs and CVs as well.
