You mean E1 hard?

You need full type-3 ASW gear (one depth charge, rest sonar) on your ships with best base ASW stat to touch her at all. 4-slot CLs are better. Unless your DDs are significantly high level than your CL/CLTs their base ASW is going to be lower than most, because the DDs have lower ASW potential in general.

You also need a whole lot of luck. If RNG doesn't smile your way, you're never going to clear it. I'm still trying personally, have gotten agonizingly close several times but that last 10-20 HP won't come off. :(
