Hoppo node, or the entire 3-5 north route, has gotten much easier, thanks to the new aircraft profieciency system.

Before, what took 3CV to achieve AS has now become a job that 2CV can do. So what you do is bring 3CV, but load them up with more bombers, which gives a stronger opening strike and also allows your CV to hit way harder. CV are so strong now, that they will easily one shot flag Ru-class and Ta-class on head-on engagements.
