This is my first event and the majority of my fleet is under lv70, but I cleared E7 Easy today just fine. The compass is the biggest threat tbh. :p

Your CTF composition looks pretty okay, and as long as your ships are kai'd/kai ni'd and have their main stats maximized, level isn't really that much of a problem. DA set-up for low luck ships and torpedo cut-in set-up for the lucky ones. Remember to bring a night scout plane and star shell(s)! Personally I did not bring a Searchlight since I heard that would increase the chance your ships would get hit.

You might want to wait a few days for your resources to recover though, I think you're a little bit too low on fuel and buckets. You'll need a lot more fuel since it's used for both sorties and repairing ships. Spam expeditions and maybe farm for ships on non-Combined Fleet maps (E1 or E4) for a few days. Save your fuel to just under soft cap, so you can still benefit from natural regen. It took me 78 buckets, 9.5k fuel, and 7k ammo to clear E7 Easy.

I think it's better to save up resources and clear E7 in one day, since AA Hime's armor resets everyday and that's annoying. I used Surface Task Force and went to nodes X and Y 3 times to break down the boss' armor immediately after the midnight reset, went to sleep, then cleared the whole map after I got up. But I suppose taking it two or three runs a day is also an option.
