For normal sorties that DON'T involve a lot of Elite/Flagship ships

1x Green plane, largest slot.

2x torp bombers, 2nd largest

1x Saiun

If you know you're going against a lot of flagship/elite, replace the torp bombers with dive bombers.

If you have Reppu, you can take 2x CV and put the Reppu on the largest slot (barring kaga) and go up against up to 3x Flagship WO CV's and not lost more than 15 or so planes per node.

Also, you CAN use carriers in PVP...Just don't put anything other than Saiun/Greens on them. I actually will usually field at least a single carrier in PVP just to avoid disadvantage T-cross and to let the 3 wings of Reppu tear the enemy carriers torp bombers a new one.
