You don't actually need an all out Type 3 ASW equipments, just the good old type 93 and type 94 is sufficient enough to clear 1-5. Now that you have reached level 57 which is more than level 40, the abyssals have added in a bunch of surprises to increase the salts. Once you hit level 80, GG.

The best formation to clear 1-5 should be 2CL BBV CVL:

CL - [Sonar x 2 + Depth Charge x 1] (If you have Yuubari/Ooyodo, equipment should be Sonar x 3 + Depth Charge x 1 )

CVL - [Best ASW attacking planes + Saiun]

BBV - [Best ASW planes] (if you have constructed Akitsumaru before, please equip the stock planes of her's)

Anything else such like 4 DD will depends on RNG, if you're doing it for quest then good luck for you. As for daily mission, don't just farm for type 3 unless you have all necessary equipments crafted such like Reppuu, Saiun, Ryuusei Kai, Suisei Model 12A, Type 32 Radars....and so on.
