Not compulsory and i agree they are weak, but very recommend for this event, up to you to decide

Sorry I miss your commend there about clearing spring but you don't have italia with max AA before entering the event (in coming planes), but on the safe side, just lvl her up and get her 381mm triple gun mount kai after you collevt enough medals for BP. Since her current non-kai guns are no good.

Historical, Hiei and kirishima are vita for the event as you can see in E4 Fall 2013, although during that time any kongou class will do, but i won't recommend to bet on it. Likespring E5 example, if you read the comment, you can see the huge difference for those who have them and those who not or locked.
