Urp. 100 fuel? I... don't know if you can make it bro. Hate to be a bearer of bad news, but I honestly think you should just... try next event instead.

But if you really want to push in... I suggest route support (the 15-minute exped only). Two BBs/CAs, two CVLs and two DDs would be the most efficient. BBs best to be Kongou class, decent firepower for their consumption. Put two radars for accuracy whether it's CA or BB you're using. CVLs can take Carrier-based recons (that's the yellow ones, like Saiun). DDs: 1 gun, 2 radars.

Though route support might not seem to be doing much, every ship taken down is one less ship your main fleet wastes a shot on, and also one step closer to S-rank. Let your fourth unused fleet (assuming you have it unlocked) go on expeds for fuel. Use subs as much as possible in expeds 2 and 5 to maximise gains (while accomplishing the requirements for exped success, of course).

Sparkling your combined fleet usually isn't necessary for E5. But, that's under an assumption that you are using your best ships (level at least 50 and above). Sparkling your route support shelling is a must, but when it comes to boss support shelling, just sparkle a DD and put her as Flagship.
